bloodletting
down, down into the darkness
shadow of bloodletting
gently it goes, catharsis
all that is self-inflicted does not leave a visible scar.
does disfigurement make you shiver?
does it?

Bloodletting was a common
medical treatment into the 1800’s
but I don’t think that’s what you’re
talking about here.
The questions at the end
are fitting to this dark poem
