Eradicating emotions
until they become
less --
virulent; or until
less of virulence becomes--
none;
more of my visions dissolved
in an emptiness ~~
a kind of hole...
Seen through it
are colors characterized
to ... sear
orange to ...red...sterilizing
wounds by
destroying old memories
...moving slowly
coming into my life
only to walk
back out ~ leaving
my life -- open; lonely
...In sight was a cool
~blue that became --
bright; soft white
Strangely I felt
comfortable in this
warm glow
overstanding it
as a peace full of shadows;
knowing that the
numbing sensations
meant my mind
had blocked out the
ability to feel
what was beheld
by the colorful
paradigm, or maybe
I was sorely mistaken
and it was that,
in which time would
heal....
smelling of sulfur
soothes the
sufferer; or
so it may be
that in
reverse ~
suffering increases
as sulfur ignites
fanned by the very
air my virulence
breathed
burning
sensations
from within
singed my cast
while impassivity
held my listless
body
as I floated
in the
sea of flames
