Revenge: it's a dream of flames fueled by scorched remains that are lit to a torch and brought back upon the one who burned you.
Every morning I sit at the kitchen table over a tall glass of water swallowing pills. (So my hands won__ shake.) (So my heart won__ race.) (So my face won__ thaw.) (So my blood won__ mold.) (So the voices won__ scream.) (So I don__ reach for knives.) (So I keep out of the oven.) (So I eat every morsel.) (So the wine goes bitter.) (So I remember the laundry.) (So I remember to call.) (So I remember the name of each pill.) (So I remember the name of each sickness.) (So I keep my hands inside my hands.) (So the city won__ rattle.) (So I don__ weep on the bus.) (So I don__ wander the guardrail.) (So the flashbacks go quiet.) (So the insomnia sleeps.) (So I don__ jump at car horns.) (So I don__ jump at cat-calls.) (So I don__ jump a bridge.) (So I don__ twitch.) (So I don__ riot.) (So I don__ slit a strange man__ throat.)
