Numb
A Poem by Erin Kaseda
(2011)
"Numb"
Said the mama bear to her cub
"Is devoid of sensation
Devoid of emotionEmpty.
Numb is when you stop
Feeling
Numb is when you blend in
With the snow
And when white becomes black
So be anything but monochromatic
Bleed red
Bruise rainbows
Spray paint yourself purple
Just don't become
Numb."
