Catching

When you cut me
And the crazy spills out
Like blood pouring
From a knife
You didn’t actually
Cut me with
Will you stop it
Sew it back in 0r run
Like they all run

Check the fine print
On the contract you hold
Read carefully
The words that were
Made in your head
See if it’s there
In black and white
That you can run

When you run
Don’t look back
For my crazy
Might follow you

  1. Powerful statement! Rings with "personality" -- strength, resiliency, incisive wit ("Check/The fine print" -- then "For my crazy/Might follow you"). I seriously admire this poem. Every word works. Thanks for a great read. :)
