The Clinic - Draft 2
#3
But the clinic for me and when they spit me.

Yes, but what is the story? I dislike poems that are all innuendo and no substance. Just from the title one would think abortion clinic, but "The appointment is my first chance to tell, where I learn entire words are missing from my vocabulary" doesn't jive with that, nor does "a carving knife dicing its way through" which is not what usually happens with a D&C. However whatever happened, happened to the lower extremities "the sting of walking cripples less than the ache of my closed mouth." I have no idea what to make of "where I learn entire words are missing from my vocabulary" and "the ache of my closed mouth". Unless he speaker has been raped and is still in shock. Something tells me that maybe this is not the case. Such phrases do more to confuse than enlighten "The pain is the same", the same as what?

The writing is clear enough, however what the writing says is anything but.

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?

The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
