Gnaw

A sharp snag,

caught against

in the snare

guilt clutch cut

a dead end

struggle to understand

stuck, slow reason

Give my early years back

and I can begin

Stretch the reject

Punish, affect

the wild wretch

I beg for better

Gnaw

scrape and scrawl

Tear and trap

Knot

Stump slaughter

Sanity pulled

taught

pulled tight

shot

Stamp slaughter

knot

Tear and trap
