Bleed

Beams of fire sweep through my head

Thrusts of pain increasingly engaged

Sensory receptors succumb

I am no one now - only agony

My crimson liquid so frantically spilled

- The ruby fluid of life unleashed

Ripples ascend to the surface of my eyes

Their red pens drawing at random, at will

A myriad pains begotten in their wake

- The bastard spawn of a mutinous self

The regurgitation of my micro nemesis

- Salivating red at the prospect of my ruin, my doom

Malfunction the means for its ascent

Bloodletting the stringent voice to beckon my soul

So futile any resisting tension

As death-induced mechanics propel its growth

The implement, the device of my extinction

- The terminating clockwork of my gleeful bane

The definitive scourge of its mockery

- The end-art instruments lethality attained

Heed - it commands. Heed my will

Bleed - it says. Bleed you will

Falling into the clarity of undoing

Scornful gods haggle for my soul

Minds eye flickers and vellicates as I let go

Taunting whispers accompany my deletion

A sneering grin, the voice of my reaper

- Chanting softly the song of depletion
