Sickening screams from within, writhing and spinning,
feeling no pain.
Numbness quenching every fiber and nerve, filling a
being with no reserve.
Squelching any ambivalence of running or staying,
cut off from a world of bitterness and rage.
Totally eclipsing any endeavor to quit or give up
and stray beyond twilight nights.
RoseAnn V. Shawiak
