Fighting With Myself

A fight between myself and I
Would leave no one to win.
But still I defy my mind
And punch myself in the chin.

I yell and shout in pain
And fall onto the floor.
Then still I continue on
And slam my hand in the door.

I look at my cuts and dings
And wonder why they're there.
Then I grip and pull up hard on
My pair of ducky underwear.

Wedgies never hurt as bad
When they come from your own hand.
So then I go and shoot myself
With a brand new rubber band.

The sting, the burn, the pain.
I shout that which I will not name.
I think I've finally had enough
Of this retched, retched game.
