Casts, Collections, & Choices

Category: Uncategorizeddryvetyme @ 9:17 am

Strange characters
Fractured facades
Tainted substances
With
Bruised & bleeding egos

Hurt is usually bifurcated, split into two ugly pieces:
Sudden, serious assaults
Or
Repetitive, bothersome sorties

It’s the difference between:
Hiroshima & Verdun
Bomb blasts & siege engines
Desolation & attrition
Shock/awe v. guerillas

Which one affects us the most?
Which one cuts us the deepest?
Which one is the worst?
Which one makes us long bleeders?

Would I prefer to just be smacked in the face by a really big fist?
Or
Would I rather have some pinch my face over & over again?

And why does it seem that I have to make this choice interminably?
What if I’ve grown tired of all of this deciding?
