1.
look in the mirror touch a face that isn't yours cut your hair razor burns cross my legs hope to die you can take the skin i shed wear it like a trophy necklace you can cut my body open take the refuge that i’ve bled
2.
i wanted more i wanted more than this shallow water pools around our ankles pulling us down and weightless— it’s sink or swim and i choose to sink the natural tendency to reduce the energy in a system the principle of least action governs all observable phenomena my body traces the geodesic against a riemannian manifold of what it could have been reducing it's too lagrangian it lies in the lowest point of a townhouse in the west end engaged in layman's pharmacokinetics (estradiol, nicotine and the occasional benzodiazepine) a desperation hums at 60hz its overtones discovering resonance in the hollows of my body a cathedral calling its parish a mind in motion remains in motion unless acted upon by an opposing force a mind at rest stays at rest
3.
our bodies will fail and our bones turn to dust like a garden of aircraft our frames growing rust our bodies will fail our bones turn to dust rest into the ocean our frames growing rust when i was younger marked years on my wrist like rings on an oak tree like years caving in when i was younger marked years on my wrist and now i am older the years crashing in when i was younger marked years on my wrist and now i am older the years crashing in our bodies will fail our bones turn to dust rest into the ocean our frames growing rust
4.
i can't wait forever i can't wait forever i'll meet you in the next life wait for me in the next life
5.
i didn't think that it'd end up this way metamorphosize bleed the needle dry how i choose to live how i choose to die philosophers have hereto interpreted the world the point is to change it a girl is a knife a girl is a knife a girl is a knife a girl is a knife
