I am
my own worst critic.
Flay me if you like
but no one can cut deeper
than my broken fingernails,
no one can spill more blood,
fill a crimson sea
with a gushing river,
than the starving beast beneath
and no one can reduce me
to the barest of nothingness
without the breath
of a single thought.
- Harshness breeds within and the seeds were planted by me
