Shriek away, clear away sound! <br />Loud! Loud! Disappear the clear <br />searing cry that deafens the ear! <br />So overburdened to feel? <br />Pound away! bludgeon touch! <br />Then next weary the eye <br />until sight's kindly blind. <br />Let our bitterness annihilate taste <br />and rancid ways create <br />resolve to vacate odor's <br />formless home. Gone taste, <br />gone smell. Gone, gone all sight, <br />touch, all sound. Let the intense be numb. <br />All stabbing senses dwindle down <br />and stillness hollow each perceiving mode...... <br />As with all of this- <br /> know the bliss of stone <br />is that it has none. <br />.<br /><br />Glenn Bagshaw<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-plea-for-insensibility/
