Lead Armoire, Cerebral Revolution

By climaks

A work inspired by Virgin paper

Paper: my battleground
For a civil war of the mind
Bullets ringing
Beating
Bleeding
Line after line

An army of words
Each stanza a wave of mercenaries
Bloodlust blazing
Ignited
Raving
Adrenaline from my dictionary

A structured war
Stippling page with granite bayonets
Daggers thrusting
Slashing
Pulsing
Bleeding ink from my chest

An eloquent end
A tide of diction turns in my favor
The war won
Concluded
Complete
The ultimatum: Paper
