Deep Inner Pain (Free verse) by razorgrin
Blood is running down my arm
as tears mirror the path down my cheeks.
Crimson pools form in the cookie batter
as I look down at the box of plastic wrap,
which is sitting innocently on the counter.
My eyes narrow as I see the printing,
a blasphemy against all that is true and good.
I raise my voice as only those truly wronged can do:
" 'New! Safety Cutting Blade', my ass!" I cry
as I throw the Saran wrap box across the room.
An arc of my blood spattering the floor.
