rattle against each other
within my warm series of cords
that tie them together in wet red
and i don't know how to explain it
how to get these vibrations to coordinate
when they're all running screaming
a dense crowd of chaos pushing against each other
rubbing each other raw and weak
and soon i will stumble
silent shaking shattered
with the small flecks of white
standing like stars against the red sky

"these calcium sticks of mine rattle against each other"
This and the title made me think of a nuclear reactor and some random movie about a nuclear submarine that went haywire. the people pretty much started melting into pools of red with little white flecks. *shake shake shake* meltdowwwnnnnnn
yet another great poem. and it gets me thinking about whether it is better to blow up, glorious, or slowly freeze over till you're just another hunk of frozen meat in this freezer. There's something more beautiful about going out with a bang...
