Physician’s convictions to poison their patients,
Procedures with Ether, cold X-Ray stations 
A thousand scans in milligrams, 
Lobotomies and Amputations…
 
Surgeries to transform me, 
Imperfections to augment 
Blood Transfusions, concussions, contusions- 
For just a small improvement!...

clawing intentions
thawing indentions
spinal cord snapped
back stab
face lifting
turn around face the stabs
what away jade me mental
skull boundaries lobotomies
holes
fresh air deepening
seeping through nostrils
cold war aroma induces coma
my time to go has come
who are them peoples
go mad later
go yourself
nevermind
climb another day

Trigo
Trigonometry.
Angle repeated to infinity.
Triangulate an epic sine.
I've far too often crossed a line.

The place where wearily I sit.
And dreams of triangles fill my head.
Yet spherical lobotomies fill me with dread.

Perhaps because they are portrayed as dreary.

CASE STUDY

never speak a word 
again
black is black
no trading
back

hand out
lobotomies
to save the
patients
families

well…

I despise it
but I’m not 
going to
crack

don’t hurt 
yourself
I want some 
help

I can’t let
you smother
me
with your
truths of
security

I’ll arrest myself
and wear a
shield
always wanting
more than I
can
feel

give an inch
take a mile
still....

I promise
to
make
you
smile
