Alive in the Ick and Flake


How beauty

must forage inside our mourning: 


Are reminiscences proper ant hills?


Your rind. Almost 

“gentle”, your arrow inside yourself, amen <3


You aren’t doing all that self-accepting aching ladylike!

In another versi0n, 

your arms are leading, laundering,

redundant. 


ARE REMINISCENCES PROPER ANT HILLS?


what's inside is not to be unbroken, 

the twine of nothing to mend. . . 


In the stairway we swell


Me go

in a different dimension 

around an impenetrable sweet.


Now, 

it’s raining outside

but I'm safe under this awning.

A couple walks past me 

holding hands in their pajamas.
I’m watching love

but why does it always feel like mourning
