nursing

after all this
a day of dripping red beating myself with
future and past
a long spiked whip crafted years ago
on that familiar road
leading nowhere

now i must do the hard work in the silence of redemption
giving myself
salve for these open wounds
i care for them gently so much time spent nursing myself back to health

no wonder
not much else is getting done
