Poem: "Bleed the Marrow" by James Kenneth Blaylock

Bleed the Marrow
By James Kenneth Blaylock, 6/30/19

the prismatic colors dimmed dramatically whenever the loving odyssey disintegrated

say no more exclaimed the wise old owl
but the cute little turtles were listening...

nothing last forever wherever upgrades
are sought to be bought, erase heaven

the lofty cost will never be cozy to your
uncomfortable bones, bleed the marrow

because cancer causes the epidermis
to turn white and cold, numbness grows
