Instead the plain pain persists Persists It insists on pushing the thick daggers in me deeper Deep like a tiger tearing sinew All the holes in me show Till the blood over flows the river Till the scars form over love wounds Restless carpenters pound new nails into fresh wood Just like the holes in my soul My perforated soul Transparent like a fisherman's wet net Happiness is a fleeing phantom whisked away By the shadow of night Instead the pain Instead of sunshine rain No matter the discovery No matter the reward claimed Dissatisfaction pesters and claws And swoops down like a murder of crows Invading your lonely ghost soul Inviting a plague of horror and applause Ghastly embryo of disease of yonder
