The mind...the rat's den

Revernd21

I feel anxiety gripping me again

Occupying my mind like rats in a den

 

Each thought a tail twisting into a knot

Resolution, hope, sense... all caught 

 

Then panic sets in accompanied by constant squealing

Dredd rapidly increasing 

 

All the rats rushing to find a solution

Yet there only ever remained one conclusion

 

Teeth against tail, knife against flesh 

 

Blood... pain... the easiest way to reset

 

The easiest way to exterminate the

rats nest
