Thought Stream

She has no face in the world, Not even a mask to cover this Scarlet letter riding her back-- How do you erase that sign But by hiding in the corners Of your mind, Blind, deaf and dumb, Climbing among the numb dead Folks, who have no clout, No doubts that they're fodder For the massive heart attack Society blends in pots Of despair, dread and broken dreams, are shot.
