An auto-scourgic spasm
By cadymae
I begin the bloodletting and feel some relief
A Release
An easing
Of a tightness across my soul
That grip on the reins that leaves creases
Across the grain of your lifelines
Hands tingling, tired, tremoring
tiny pulsating burstlets of empathy
Overridden by rigor
An august authoritarian rises up within to
Finish the fight
Hands sure and still, competent all of a sudden

Love your visuals and the way you present a scene through the prism of your experience. "That grip on the reins that leaves creases Across the grain of your lifelines" - excellent visual detail! Ciao, T/S
