Wires

I don't understand
how the message
gets through to
the bones in
your hands,

the blood
pulsing through
your arms,
mapping-out
the course
of survival,
'you'll be alright'
drying on the
curve of your wrist,

violet bruises
descend down
your arm,
his henna blue-prints;
afraid of
loosing control,

the numb antibiotics-
God-like in their case
of miracle cures,
looking at each day
as if it was the last.
