Literature Text

There are lovers
I will never be able to
crawl out from underneath;

I’m caving in, lungs
no longer able
to exhale lovely things.

However hollow, I’ve got
these artist hands,

these god hands of mine
that can save lives.

What’s the point
when I’ve got little
writer veins

& no one can ever seem
to find my pulse?

Oh my God. This is absolutely..Touching. It makes one's heart beat like the warning drum of an Indian Tribe.
