Heroin

Piercing my skin, just one pore
the icy liquid drops trickle in.
The highest screeching notes
on an electric guitar, sliding,
divide my brain in half.
Faster & faster, less of an edge,
then there's only a rumble
like a not-quite-dormant volcano.
Slowly, sharpness withraws
through it's wound...
