The rat and the piece of cheese

By M Morgan

The rat and the piece of cheese

gnawing me
tiny, tiny
as a mouse to a piece of cheese
small, insistently
inside me

as if I had
sin
as if I'd blame
as if I was wrong...

there... aching...
trying to annoy me
not letting me sleep

gnawing me ...
the rat and the piece of cheese
inside my chest

and Iam bursting
this feelings
here outside.

    This was very well expressed in an artful and subtle way, that unites many who suffer here. Congratulations on finding that elusive, common thread and much enjoyed (next time I'll bring crackers)! Cheers MM.
