the forgiving skin stitches over scars
this ugliness pulls down on me
until all I want is to peel away
my skin and spill like so much meat
upon the earth and be left out
for the ravenous sunlight to rot
the forgiving skin stitches over scars
walking around with my unfuckableness
singing along with my bigfatugliness
bathe me in blood and dreams
put me to bed on shards of glass
and hope I don’t split open at the seams
splintering into text like fingernails
the forgiving skin stitches over scars
rewiring my circuitry ever so slowly
automaton woman coding myself
a path through all the pain until
i am just vaporising molecules
spinning mute stories of terror
bleached bones dripping with ink
the forgiving skin stitches over scars
