Wounded And Unwound But Wired by Allin KHG

[empallin]

this wire wrapped around my body
so thick and heavy
holding me down
keeping me from being
keeping me seeing
i pick at until my fingers bleed
until my hands are free
tying the end down
dizzy spinning
trying to get free
moving faster
pulling hard on strands so thin
they cut into my skin
then finally the moments
i step out and away
only to reach down
starting to spool it back in
wiping off the blood
untangling the knots
carrying it to you
letting it go
until there is nothing left
nothing to give you
but myself
