Pen o’ the Woods : The Forest of the Heart

The demolition derby
that rages on in 
the muskeg of 
our hearts

is a boxcar
full of secrets
only oneself 
can know

fully--

ramrod smashing,
and crashing, 
there's
no comfortable 
seating here.

Every time 
I come
here,
I get a 
headache,

and my leg
falls asleep.
