Ants crawl over everything I own
My blood pools
Swells and crusts and dries
My heart palpitates
My lungs crackle, click and burn
I overflow
I wish someone would crack my skull
Grind their teeth on me until I’m dust
Breath hard on me when you lie to me
Make me feel everything you can’t
Ants crawl over everything I own
They are found wanting
All over

My hands are raw
Don’t think they’re healing
The sun is up before we’ve gone to sleep
My eyes are sandpaper
You tear yourself to pieces
Til you’re confetti
Why not invite people over?
Pretend it’s a party

Shed the husk of our summer skin
Embrace that we’re ageing
Rubberneck your scars
I come by it honestly
To tread lightly
Pave over the depths of your folds
Gnash at that wound
Mement that mori
Ephemeral learning
You’re learning
Massive headway
Laughs behind my fraud insight
Enrich my enclosure
With shiny things, you all bring

Scrape out your bones
Show your work
Prove your worth
Pour down synthetic green
Sink into a hollow dream
Smother me, Pollyanna queen
Phase out all you’ve known
Miasma screams
You no longer own
Your bones

You love to gut it out
It’s not you, it’s me
I’m projecting
I’m deflecting
Do you approve?
Tell me you like me
And that I’m funny
Can you grade me?
I can't self reflect
I wanna say it all
Fucked up, but not quite enough
My deepest shame
It’s electric
It repels me
It compels me
Strip the sheets
Tear down the blinds
Scorch the earth
It’s overdue
The fall
