Penknife woes
By Alasse Fefalas

Its silver edge shines
The red body beckons
Escape from dysphoria
Succumb to temptation

Wow. You capture a lot in just four lines! You really get into the temptation and the escapism quite nicely - well done!

And perish with chagrin? That's how I felt in my days of cutting. 'Tis piteous though, that in return, unalleviated scars are all we get. 4 short and unfunished lines. But good work.
