i hide from artillery rain
frantically survey the great destruction
on a slab of construction paper i contour obsessively every wrinkle
i wake shackled to my bed
i bash the chain apart at last
but its 7:30pm once again
no telling what shells they used
or what direction they flew in
i ask the body
who says go ask the mind
the mind says ask the body
and the body slaps the mind
right off the chair
seven deadly stares
with my breast in a bind
i cross my fingers and find
my lotus drawing its line
a sigil of the body and mind violence
i fought all this time
and suffered in different shrines
at all the hands of the hive
invigorating body and mind violence
on all my people
stoned blind by the evil
the violence
all the violence
i dip my goblet
into the violence
