TAP THE SKIN

TAP THE SKIN

A Poem by Rene Velez

TAP THE SKIN

Tap the skin till
It raises, street or den
It does not matter
Needle to apply
To feel the high

take away
The scratch and itch
The nurse is a b***h
And I am its slave
I am trapped in her
Warm waves of hell

But I can not yell
Or mumble a word
I am inches from a fall
Clinging the Dragon wall

I can not fill this empty hole
Or shed skin to save my soul
I am content to die
Chasing this high knowing
I will not return.
