pause not

Cut the cord and do it
Quick.
Pause not for thought-
to severe each tiny nerve,
(as if I were nothing)
one by one, by one.
Sharpen the blade that
you've used for so long, Love.
(It's getting dull.)
Please, be truthful-
Put away those kid gloves,
though my blood will stain
your hands.
But do it quickly.
Then please, give me
something to numb the
pain.
