scars, and he traced them
more reverently than
any lover had touched
me
at all.

there’s a strangeness about you now.
You wear it like a cloak.
Like something touched you back
there that I couldn’t see.
avoids responsibilities, people tell them they are childish and need to grow up, would rather live in their head than the real world, wants success to just happen to them, focuses on fantasies more than reality, believes they deserve to have whatever they want, life lacks direction, never know what to do next, does dumb things frequently, inconsistent performance, lazy, slacker, does the minimum to get by, does things without thinking, does not feel they have any reason to accomplish anything, tend to ignore or put off problems, believes fun is the most important thing in life, most people think they are crazy, forgets scheduled appointments, more past than future, gets attention through negative behavior
I always save pictures of girls.
Girls that are so much skinnier
so much more beautiful
perfect skin long fingers perfect perfect sickening sweet
girls covered in tattoos, girls, girls, naked girls.
And then later I sit and click through them and get angry
and I cry little angry tears on my keyboard cover
and then I just get plain miserable.
maybe i am just strange.
Cat scratch your arms, little girl,
Until ghosts trickle out
And the demons leave you
Alone.
ovum:
cry. write about it minimally, write about it always. run away to a town he won’t ever set foot in, get lost in its streets or forests. realize how inconsequential he was, or how lovely his eyes really were. swallow the beauty of every touch & word you exchanged, choke on it, cry until you can’t remember why it is you’re crying. but always remember that one day, on most nights, it will be a memory as distant & unfelt as anything else that once was, then wasn’t.
Chloe…Chloe!
Pale and white.
Neglected child
of the night.
Never one
to worship light,
Our Melancholy Chloe.

A thousand times
,“I AM HERE TO PLAY WITH THE FISHES” and he gave me
THAT LOOK
The one that lets me know that
He most certainly cannot see them, even if he wanted to So I draw my knees up to my sheetwhitechest and rock

Until he finally leaves me in my little cotton room and behind him a door is not locked once but
Thrice thrice thrice.
I know you’re hungry. Hush. Hush. It’s not a library but it will do. Sh. Eat the things I write so only you may read them.
I know you’re hungry. You say you’re not but I know this to be otherwise so to your dismay I begin to slowly coax word after meter after syllable into your pursed tight clenched unwilling mouth.
He unlocks
Click click click
The door in the morning to find me tirelessly stuffing notebook paper into a hole I had bit into the wall of my cotton room and I remember
The Free Ones with Capital Letters taking me down the hall on a hard uncomfy metal chair to get the tubes and the tests to extract the bits of you I hid so skillfully inside me, the parts of you I had ingested and would have kept if not for the digestive system.
They said in cloud voices with mercury in their curious appraising eyes that my love notes were found inside my stomach partially digested and I
Laugh and
Laugh and
Laugh until it
Hurts, it
Hurts with joy.
I am so proud of you.
You finally ate.
