On

Like crowded teeth
this grows inside
Must it come out
it feels uke every hardened chunk
tears me apart
yet I put it down
and I put it on
I put these words
on around my head
I wear them like a jewel
and I wear them uke a scar

A roar starts
in my ear
It's on
bright piercing ught
and a heat that sears
It's on
so we go on
