Bitter<br />
By Devona Sand<br />
my skin was tender<br />
elastic wrinkled experience<br />
and<br />
the incision that bled<br />
translucent honesty and trust<br />
out<br />
was no paper cut<br />
in sessions my flow<br />
hijacked<br />
missing the specific connective<br />
tissue as warmth left<br />
and<br />
scars widened growing cold<br />
with the projective lashings of adapted<br />
diagnostic regimens leadened<br />
while<br />
my lifeblood<br />
a psych matter debated<br />
gently poured into vials<br />
a particular strand of genome<br />
revealing<br />
a reddish hue mutated<br />
glint reflected from a<br />
light above<br />
my eyes caught the shine<br />
a loose construct and process<br />
so<br />
smashing the container open<br />
genes with fine-tuned roles<br />
collagen gone spatial<br />
I<br />
continue to carry the shards
