Punishing

Punishing
Inspired by The Lonliness and The Scream 


It grips me from the inside,
the anguished scream that's been lying in wait for so long.
No where to explode to,
to escape to
to free itself.
So it detonates within me.
I am powerless against it
and it rages over me
raking me with its cruel fingernails
telling me how worthless I am,
how easy I am.
Grasping my arms in its huge calloused hands.
Black bruises rising everywhere
it grabs me.
Contorting my body
in wrenching, writhing sculptures
Squeezing, pulling, hitting, hurting
plunging, pounding, throbbing,
ripping, tearing, searing pain.
Punishing.
Punishing
Punishing
Turning off my brain.
The  whip of its viscous tongue
Pushing vile words deep into my throat
Forcing back my breath
That shrieks to be set free
Bellowing it's perverse agony.
Biting, gnawing, grasping,
tasting fury, wrath, savagery
lavishly vengeful.
Punishing
Punishing
Punishing
