Whoever has hurt you has hardly a mind, treason
Over reason, their souls only mark
The darkness of Lucifer’s. I’ll take a razor
To their hearts, I’ll make them listen,
But, it’ll never be enough;
Our lives are scarred by a stranger.

This poem is the 2nd stanza of Finish (working title) from the Sestina Synthetica project on Chalkboard. Janet Rhodes, you’re next, darling!

The end of the world begins with rain and I drown in its colour.
