Another Fix, Another Poem
                                  by michael cahill




W ith blood injected, thoughts begin to seep
R ejection, anguish, pain--what shall I bleed?
I cannot stop the flow, dark red I weep
T his seems to be a must, for I don’t need
I beg all that is holy, make it stop
N othingness-- please ... fill my mind for once
G racious God, if peace you’d only swap

A rrest all thought ... despair confronts
D enied-- my quest has fallen on deaf ears
D eluded-- I thought love or joy might call
I have no want to swim in my own tears
C areening o'er my wretched waterfall
T he truth is the most hateful foe of all

Author Notes



This is from our weekly Poetry Potlatch Challenge.

The challenge for this week was an acrostic poem. The acrostic was:

WRITING ADDICT

Everyone is given the topic at the same time and we write a piece and post it as fast as possible. The time limit is one hour. I wrote this in ten minutes. I had trouble downloading a picture so it took another ten minutes to post.

I've since changed the picture and edited a couple typos.
