channel, all that you breathe
flash, everything touched
break, the sight of knuckles

against skin,
ablaze, the day away
begin, again to tear
walls away.

lift, the bricks above the shoulders
cascade, everything heard
and break a sleepless night

race, against the rounds
blast, the whiff of war
reach against the spine

stop know,
win, a slot away
end, the bloodshed
and fall against the floor
while the frame gives you a concussion
and strips the sludge from your corpse

to again have a sleepless night
