yarn i found the yarn that makes up my hatred
there was a loose end
and i just started pulling and pulling and pulling
and while it was excruciating to watch it unravel
i was spellbound at the intricacy of those knots
blown away by the size
and curious as to what event cause which knot
i know people in this world
who want to pick my scabs
and sit and watch them bleed
just so that they can be there to sop up the blood
but i don't need any help
i lived through a terrible thing
but the key is that i survived it
and now i have to live the rest of my life with that experience
tucked into my psyche
my memory
and my heart
