ward something— someone?

(CALL ME.)

Superficial and

vapid, glittering bubbles

I need attention.

Centipedes inside

my chest: they crawl and bite and

break through my reserves

Like psilocybin,

I want my breath on your ear

to make you see God.

Is it worth the repurcussions?

I want this flesh to

be a manifestation

of my emotions.

(PLEASE DON’T IGNORE ME.)

Trapped beneath my skin

enmeshed in sinew and blood:

the monstrous hunger.

(I TAKE HUGE BITES.)

My favorite words are

blood, skin, sweat, and breath: human

words. Mine to possess.

Time creeps by. Coldness.

I’m waiting for you to come

and validate me.

Bite into my flesh.

I hope the flavor drives you

to insanity.

Where your fingers touch

warmth flows. A volcano sits

beneath my skin. Burn.

Petals, thinned-blood-red,

spill across a leg, an arm,

cut into my eyes.

pool onto my sheets

what are we?
