armor
(_)
of
the
skin
at
which
i
rip
with
fingers
hands
longing
to
bite
until
red
of
the
sleeves [
covering
scabbed
arms
]i
rub
across
my
face
innocently
for
the
sting
of
the
jacket
thick
that
i
keep
on
when
warm
as
final
armor
doesn't
save
from
scratched
cheeks
nails
paint
pain
whiskers
a
clown's
mask
of
stupidity
senseless
aggrandizing
pictures
of
mediocrity
want
to
make
another
cliched
destructive
masterpiece
until
armor
scars
everything
and
soft
fleshy
brain
doesn't
care
anymore
then
sleep
will
come

its
own
