Waking

A pain throbbing in rage seeking the comfort of dirt staining underneath the fingernails, riot to 
no more identity unfound, i caution the ache but it forced a way through, like a worm to wiggle 
forth eating the pupil to my sight having a resting peace in my thoughts birth the savages taking 
on the flesh, waking up from a dream of life.
