Bad title (08/29/2016)

what is is to dangle from a cliff
expectant of a fall only to be let down easy
descent lasting for decades
into a pool of novocaine

the ropeburn from holding on
the impression of my nails
holding tight enough to lose feeling
convincing my hands of their use
balled up against each other
balled up into myself

Hangman hero

◄ Captain Hook (Hotel dark thirty)
