cut to the quick
and it hurts
in its dull but

and it hurts
in its dull but
insistent way
i bit off more
than i expected
couldn't stop the
tearing until
too late
i've felt the
raw subdued twitch of
unsatedness
like light through
a window
the one pinpoint
hobbling pain speaks
over twitch and cut
it keeps going,
speaking its peace
in fits and turns
took no precautions
but not willfully,
just forgotten in
a haze of rush
remembered too late
for remedy
