Awakened
Sheets of burning coal
an aortic tinder box
kidney failure, Cataracts
though Pigs writhe
at foot’s end,
like severed worms
The swelling is foreign
Suppurating fun-house image
Of a well garnered impotence
Mistook a pair of scrubs
For a savior
I’d offer the rest to avoid
their ivory bird
proud of his days
grieving baker’s dozen
Mistook a pair of scrubs for a savior….what a great line!
