(See previous post for the intro and concept. This one is also playfully dramatic like KK but has a more meaningful point; at least I think so.)
EUSTRESS (GOOD FRETTING)
I was just sitting there
Unremarkably minding my own business
Hidden away
Curled up
Quiet and cozy
And then some lunatic ripped my home open
Grabbed me
Shackled my feet
Tied my hands to a peg
And stretched
And pulled
And tightened
What is this torture
This pressure
Taut
Exposed
Trapped
Much more tension and I’ll snap in two
Get your hands off me
And that pointed pick
And … wait
What’s that sound?
