Trash of gold

Protruding trash from a heap of memories past

thoughts cut to the bone on fragments of mental debris

spits clots, from a wound whose bleeding will ever last

once buried now exposed its sharpness I did not see

Shards of buried pain excavated from the brain

Silent screaming through teeth with repair protracted

A urinal mind drain has a yellow stain

blood of gold with cyanide extracted

Author's Note

cyanide is often used in the extraction of gold from ore

What a terrible in the superb sense of the word and frightening use of sharp words that fit the subject so well.
