in my own body ← here i am a siege overthrowing a home where no one lives but me. i’m too big for my too big head too barely anything for want, my love built me from a nail in the wall galloped to meet the socks on the floor → now a hole in the wall i would peek thru & run some cable thru so we all could watch cable. now, there’s a good amount of good reasons why no one lives here, no one lives with me. my cat even tries to leave. he jumps out the window, off the roof, & waits for me to catch him with the neighbors. & i too trynna be beautiful & loved this way. i ← suppose: perching for life to begin is this flatline moving me, failed, forward, feathered closer to grace each time; going mother after mother i wake up as a dove picking lilies from her black i suppose i love so i know i ain’t know brevity without withholding a breath ← loved those flying ants, infiltrating thru all fronts’ doors til i (w)as a room entered watching for bites tender thicker than all-time’s to consume ← consistency dragged → this long makes me wanna bite bird feet ← too baby cat i love you too,... ache in my bones you remind me of what is it(?) to be picked ← |
