kick me signs are temporary/sometimes i feel empty though soul knows better of it

I

tourniquet tortures
take bloody descriptions

exactions are diminished

with feathers victim to filtration
heart bleeds so damn empty

if only blood would splatter
and redden some of the scenery
which stabs somehow disproportional

then perhaps time would have less friction
and nothingness wouldn't rub raw against me

II

poetry is attainable grail
as myriad thoughts emanate from stone
porous to possibly

So now then
there is hope

born of joined bits of brevity

III

everything blends into
beginnings, middles, and endings
while the world is stuck on repeat

but the heart feels things
so far removed from linear

and never misplaces even shattered patterns
often found in the darkest of places
