Blank Slate
A blank slate thirsty for ink
parched if not for a drop of
blood from a flaming pen
write on me in rubescent
sears the choler you hold
line by line pour out
the darkness that engulfs you
sable as the space
between stars
fill me with the songs
you sing in the hush
of the dawn
over and again
again and over
until you cover my
every inch
and make me
black as night
drown me with
all the words you failed
to breathe out
choke me with
all the thoughts
which asphixiate you
when you can write no longer
take up the pen
fill it with white ink and
cover me again
