Imposition of Pain

IMPOSITION OF PAIN

you come calling
banging on my bangs
at the midnight hour
cupping my countenance 
roughly in your hands
scraping more suffering
haranguing harder and harder
my head harasses the pillow
with an eternal tick tock
you shower me with increasing pressure
taunt me with moments of despair
kick it up a notch
chime in my rhyme
i grimace at  your gangrenous grin

orange hues open my eyes
sky’s skewed

I cautiously say i'm doing better :) Sometimes poetically we kick it up a notch. Still have some discomfort. We will see. Blessings, Chris!
