Intense and Terse - Bruce V. Bracken's All-Purpose Poetry Thing

Shoot me up like a needle
Shoot me down like a gunhand
Shoot me up like a needle
Shoot me down like a gunhand

Intense and terse
Like a mystery cut
If I could rewind and play
Intense and terse
Like a shot to the gut
On this wind's gnashing teeth day

Turn me on and off
In picosecond flashes
Turn me on and off
In picosecond flashes

Intense and terse
Like a mystery cut
If I could rewind and play
Intense and terse
Like a shot to the gut
On this wind's gnashing teeth day

Switch me on and off
With your disciplined lashes
Switch me on and off
With your disciplined lashes

Intense and terse
Like a mystery cut
If I could rewind and play
Intense and terse
Like a shot to the gut
On this wind's gnashing teeth day
