WHY?

I spent the whole day
worshiping the sun
because god
was like a serrated knife
in my rib cage

nobody needs to know
of the damage all that
curiosity did
to my ability to reason

neither does anyone need to take a stab at it

the only thing goin' down
on these steamy,
evening colored streets
is the blazing hot topic of
"Who did this to me?
And why?"
