Bitter catharsis
Leaves me drained, devoid,
Exhausted, reborn

Bitter catharsis
Leaves me drained, devoid,
Exhausted, reborn
I’ll chisel away
All the parts of you
That aren’t really you
I am sure it gave you no
Satisfaction to watch me
Take a fall, and recovery
Was a foregone conclusion.
All the same, have a great life.
Do not talk to me again.
If there is a beautiful
Woman to watch me, I am
Unbeatable. But what can
I do in the dark, alone?
No chains shall bind me.
No cage shall trap me. I will
Ever defy you.
No more shall I be
Fresh fledgling, rookie, strung up.
I will endure to
The last, and watch all
Who thought themselves my better
Draw their dying breaths.
Reccan Ryder, the
Unkillable man. Shot, stabbed,
Poisoned, still on he walks.
He knew not what his
Purpose was, only that he
Must have one, something.
When I finally
Allow humility to
Diffuse throughout my
Life, it brings with it
Humor, grace and peace, enough
To face the next day.
I was crushed into
The dust; I gazed heavenward
For my chariot
