With this red ink I freely bleed phrases,
and splatter life upon open pages.
For parental love I cannot complain,
and in love forged courage I bare this name.
For romantic love I do hold the same,
on re-threaded sleeves I display her name.
But still I drip from un-clotted fingers,
in ambitious pools which stink and linger.
In ancient method I let out this blood,
cleansing my mired heart with divine flood.
