write it in red
carve and cut the vein so
all the blood lets
hold fast the pen
to leave indelible stains
write it in red
so the page remembers
how trees (of which the world
is not worthy) were
pulped, throttled
cut and sawed in two
mulched then flattened
through the press
wait to see that
words coagulate and
dry, clotting
so that the wound is never
stanched
write in red
so the whole world knows it is
bleeding
