30 years known -
tainted.
self appointed affliction,
self anointed invention,
clarity:
As blood-muddied
as the waters can be.
24 more hours gone -
blank.
Never forget how,
never regret why,
rationale:
The underlying reasons
of why you fight.
12 months isolation -
repeated.
A modern manifest leprosy,
a modern miracle hypocrisy,
friendship:
Only available electronically,
returning full circle -
to tainted.

This piece is reflection on self-hate, loneliness, pain, isolation and trying to remain strong.
Tried to give it a very sparse, stripped down, minimalist feel, at least, compared to most of my other writing.
