In Sensory Findings
Kick over the right stone,
And yeah, you’ll find a grub.
Writhing and coiling upon itself
Naked but absolved
Subject to every whim of the sun.
Stare into the right eyes
And yeah, you’ll find a story
Hidden, buried in the soul
Pain, suffering, and self worth
A silence worthy of a thousand words
Sit back, Observe every tragedy
And yeah, you’ll find a fairytale
Masquerading mysteriously
Even to its beholder
In the innocence, the essence of children
Tear at these buttons
And yeh, you’ll find an appealing sentiment
Carved into the centre of my chest
Dissimilar text in dissimilar texture
Discoloured and heavily keloided
Collapse the homes of the forlorn
And yeah, you’ll find me
Bloated, bruised and blue
Setting fire to my photographs
And with painted eyes of obsidian
….I can see through everything.
