The Pen and The Wind

The writings and musings of a windswept soul.

Cold steel pressed against my tongue,
Tastebuds severed by a rough edge,
 Blood comes out, spattered in slurs, 
Coming out as pointless speech. 

When cuts come from the blade,
The sharp edge that separates truth and lie,
I cannot begin to fathom how to react,
For I am human,
And thus am both Truth and a Lie,
And tasting a knife should cleave me in twain.  

Out of boredom I decided, 
To drive a knife into my brain. 
You may think it’s stupid,
But I’ve never been too sane.

The blood ran down in my eyes,
And I got an idiotically brilliant idea,
To write down a glorious epic,
To record a heroic saga.

With knife dug deep in my head,
I worked like a mindless bug,
And I showed my epic to the world,
So they could give it an unempathetic shrug.
