can you?

by Kalikala Smith

Can you tell me
about this thing
that rages inside
pulsates and vibrates
and begs to be free?

Can you release me
from this torment
that boils and scorches
me and my very being
so am I strangled?

Can you set me free
from this fever inside me
it burns so cold, so deep inside,
and I'm raging, raving, and losing control,
because the beast (the wretched on with the beaty eyes)
has beaten me down and I fear,
I am drowning.
So I ask again,
can you...?
