Impossible Feeling

spelling in bruises

"crazy iris"

writing out in welts

"the morbid iris"

intolerable

incomprehensible

you can never earn enough

to buy the gun that you want

so you photograph the marks

but the blood you spite

sputters up up up up

out out out out

up and up

up and up

drafted in a gash

"out of focus iris"

fill up the bath with glass

and cover your face

in the shroud of impossible feeling

in the shroud of impossible feeling

in the shroud of the impossible feeling
