Anesthesia an ampule of water clear crystal green canisters and red filled vials colored fluids staining yellow under eyes pressed so tight it flares out into raw nerves pulsing through fibers bloody endings |
hold still
silent
unbreathing
mock sliver
unstable
sensations
blending bitter tastes
whirling and snaking smoke
pushing it
down
into a crevasse
nonexistent
only moments
before
