Expressing Ulcers

It's like grinding- Thistle-lips when speaking-- Trying to trample, 'Assumption' Told us melancholy With which; I wear Knives-as-skin. My Cerebellum-doesn't Know-how-to --Connect? Channeling changes, You'd rather see Becomes me. I listen sideways; stepping Speech-- I'd eat bramble branches For impediments of you. Screaming red-raw-thorns As they skewer- My throat. I giggle blisters instead.
