Matthew Harris Poet Dramatic Verse

This August 26th 2018 Rendition - Part Ii

killer (suicide) wrought living corpse 
fruition, while she whipped various 
nutritious concoctions in blender
to ensure minimal essentials to, I 

readily admit) famished body in con
junction with applying vital supple
mints into bony gluteus maximus, 
thru fuel injection which submissiveness
 
to acquiesce, and bare buttocks did 
absolutely nothing to squelch death wish.
I inexorably overcame eating disorder 
deadly hunger strike essentially constituted
 
declaration of independent control
despite horrendous craving for food 
jabbed innards like a pike bifurcated 
psychic division  loosed, ousted, and
 
routed coeval grim reaper grippe 
permanent goal lyeth drink seize abated
gnome hatter reminiscence blissful child
hood over flooded self made dike 
revised engendering propensity 
to catapult into abysmal emotional hole

before invention of Facebook, I 
mentally clicked Like sparring sword 
fight mailer daemons mortally wounded 
slain, viz healthy development stole.

Imprimatur indelibly etched decades 
after bout with passive exit from life
crimps psycho/social skills plus 
stunted physical growth butcher knife 

cuts affected mental health with panic 
attacks and anxiety though existence 
considerably less riddled debilitating 
symptoms (such as vertigo, racing heart, 
profuse sweating, nausea, irritable bowels)
courtesy prescription medications.
