Text Box: OPIATIC

My body has no place to go
it doesn’t need to feed
it doesn’t need release or
hope, it needs to sit alone

As good as dead, as well alike
I haven’t got a clue
Quiet pain, without relapse 
until I come to life

When I'm alive I feel such pain
I cannot stand to feel
Open to the bitter air and
lost in ice, I scream

Jay Braun, we assume, has been incarcerated for drug possession, has overdosed, or is in intense rehabilitation, as he has never gotten back to us since his initial submission. We hope he is all right.
