Sept. 3rd
Have you ever felt an itch
grow outward from your bones
into your raw skin
out of your grinning mouth
and smother your open eyes
Have you ever had a scratch
scrawl across your fingertips
worm along your skull
tickle your nose
and bleed your ears dry
Have you ever felt a tingle
Tremble up your spine
As your bleeding bitten nails
Claw the broken skin upon your wrists
While screaming for someone to see
