Severed a nerve- a couple, a few
Captivated an audience- with violence
My ears bleed- in the filtered silence.

Sanction off- my remaining pride
Measure, in cups- the tears I've cried
Memorize- my boring acceptance speech
Take the podium- my opinions I preach.

Visualize- a satisfactory retreat
Bow my head- spineless defeat
Understanding- in the end
Success- a faulted and failing friend. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 149 [topic] => 6 [informant] => strange_lindsey [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => AngryPoetry )

Wow . . . nice job capturing an emotion/feeling we all go through . . . and I just gotta like the kinda pause within each line-- not sure how to describe it, but I like how it makes the poem flow.
