Section Me

Section my veins
And plant the seeds of your love
Deep in my flesh

Let it creep
Along the pipelines

Let it swim
In the river of life

Section my brains
And paint your image
Along the sinews of grey

Mould them
Into the statue of love

Etch yourself
In the engine of reason

Section my pains
And sprinkle the salt of sugar
Make a lemonade of your love

Give me a drink
Of the poisoned nectar
Let my parched lips kiss
The chalice of doom

Open my skull
And irrigate my brains
Let my veins
Drain

Sow the seeds of my pains
Bury them in me

Let the needle flow
And pierce its way
Let it unblock
Unclog the holes
Let my veins breathe

Section me
And free me

Free me of my blood
Free me of my thoughts
Carve open my soul
Take out my bowels

Rinse my inner parts in acid
Give it an alkaline bath
Purify it with corrosive
Explode the insanity of my heart

But give me…

The roots of your love tingle too much

Dark, but with a positive ending.

Wow. The image you depicted was so powerful and strong, yet also the raw emotion was just.. There. Everywhere.

[Libby McKeown]

The imagery and rhythm of this poem is nothing short of amazing. A few lines really stick out, particularly the last line and "etch yourself in the engine of reason." I really love your work. At times, however, the poem has moments of cliche and overused imagery like "parched lips" but that's just my humble opinion. Please keep writing.

[Kenneth The Poet]
