Licking Razor Blades
Too much time spent licking razor blades
Hanging with the prehistoric beastsÂ
Tearing rotten flesh
Foul...
Deep in the EvergladesÂ
Lazy in the sullen swampÂ
Forgetting the motion of the oceanÂ
The magic of the moonlit beachÂ
The rhythmic slapping of the cooling waves
Finally finding the right remedyÂ
Previously using the wrong lubricationÂ
Pouring parched dry Earth
Into rusted joints
Futile attempts at literate rebirthÂ
Yes... too much timeÂ
Licking razor bladesÂ
Suckig the last inkÂ
From the quill...
Crimson salt of a
Hedonistic lifestyleÂ
Sedative & stimulant addiction
The danger has lost its thrillÂ

You use such vivid metaphors that really work. The first two lines really draw the reader in. Easily deserves 5 stars but I wish I could give it more x
