Feeling, But Not

About mental illness

Photo by Megan Andrews on Unsplash

Heavy hum buzzing tinnitus of the body inflammation of the soul rubbed red and raw.

Nerves never stopping decorated sleeves in veins and arteries tattered, tired, and torn.

Wet winds whipping dripping blurry vision soul-windows shatter scattering us about.

Sight severely skewing but someone has been tracking blood on the carpet

and I can’t feel my feet.

Thank you for reading. To watch me perform this piece at an open mic click the link below.

And a special thank you to Diana C. and everyone at KTHT for hosting a publication in search of “𝘈𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘷𝘶𝘭𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘢𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 & 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘸𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘧 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸𝘭𝘦𝘥𝘨𝘦 𝘰𝘯 𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴.

If you’re interested in reading any more of my work, I have categorized my writing here into lists:

The categories are:

You may find one poem on more than one list (i.e. a poem invoking imagery from the COSMOS & NATURE might be describing MIND & MENTAL ILLNESS or be presented in WHIMSY & RHYME, etc).
