tickling aching tingling shaking / vision is a harsh mistress / fuzz in my sight sets my ears abuzz

i feel it all / everything you did / everywhere you touched / everywhere you hit / everywhere you scratched / everywhere you cut

the air shifts / and suddenly / we're back / just for a moment / another fragment / chipped off

every time you whispered / every time you screamed at us / do you have any idea how much your voice hurts

every time i trim the nails on my middle fingers / i remember how i cried / and how you never stopped / no matter what / no matter how much i bled / you never believed me

i feel it again / all over / so many things / so many prinpricks / so many things crawling all over me / inside me / shredding me / slowly but surely

i'll never be numb
