Today's challenge is a poem to do with 'touch'.
gloves
there was something
final
about slipping that
downy
fleshy
chilling
glove over my hand
the inside so
cold
it felt still damp with
blood

Synaesthesia
I hurt
in orange, yellow
purple and red
acupuncture
feels
like a rainbow
and love
is the brightest white
I've ever seen.
Synaesthesia is a neurological condition in which one sense is experienced through the perception of another sense.
sand between my toes
fragments of unmelted glass
why am I barefoot?
All this challenges
are really touching
are really boring
like if it was only
thermoplastic that will abide rough use and great heat
for our rotten valves
and lost souls
Like anybody else
who could withdraw the curtain
some kind of devastating fever
of a non English english speaker
who just pick out some fast
and random poor words
to blemish and pollute and maculate
northern few verses that wont last

Eek! I just didn't notice the time slipping by me - sorry! I'll put up a new challenge now :)
My first time here, and now just posting feedback on your post. ;) The mystery is intoxicating. Aside from my imagining of a serial killer on the loose, the image of the coroner in uniform comes to mind.
