Bullet Shot

...or, "the Boy Poem"

Flesh breaking embedded secrets
Ripped open, filled
Blood bleeding & inspired
Injected & possessed
With Matter of life

I will fight all through this night
I will kill I will maim, rescue
Destroy & give birth

I need no protection
I don't want to be saved
Finding my way I save myself

Fountains of tears
Pooled & spurting
Fountains of fears
No, I tear
Shredding through space & time

Like this bullet seeks it's target
Skin & muscle
Brains & teeth, guts & hearts,
Sorrow & Hope
Revenge
raw & sad
Crow-black will nonstop
Bang

Dang!
