Tension Climbs Like Rain by Melodie Yvonne Ramey
Tension climbs my shoulder blades
especially when it rains
Descending makes me quite insane
and my attention fades
My neck is tight and shooting flames
up my spine into my brain
Behind my eyes I feel the pain
They’d shoot a horse if it’s this lame
My verbiage just increases things
my hollow skull reverberates
It eats my teeth and half my face
and everyone smells outta place
Then at an obscene quickened pace
I’m all consumed and all deranged
My body’s just a ball of waste
and disdain laces my soul’s taste
I close my eyes and hibernate
like writhing worms rejuvenate
And realize that it’s just too late
for agony has sealed my fate
