"I AM NOT afraid, i was born to do this" please, jehanne la pucelle-- here, humming, the constant burn whilst he--inkspinner--mollifies and ****** ****** skin I AM NOT afraid--the hum, epauliere lying heavy, cumbersome--my shoulders are broad and moth eaten, trembling, waste; mom, my canines hurt; i have to show my teeth. there are gauntlets in my skin, mom, licks of fever-heat beneath my heels. I draw the Weary longsword. "I AM the drum." see: i too spit blood, raise the banner; are we the drum, all you and i? watch the masses close in. conflagration inferno round and round; the sting of flesh, the weight, the ache in my gums; the drum, which GOD beats out HIS message please, mom, it hurts. please, jehanne, it hurts please beg me BE NOT AFRAID

joan of arc sitting a row down during the *** inequality discussion
weight, gentle against the softness of my belly; there, mandible, and the other: ribbons of cornflower fettering hollow-bird-bones soothing dessicated pinions; chasing the empty billow 'neath ribs swelling, stretching, the emptiness of the throat; gazing down; stroking gentle against a silken cranium; pressure points, GV20 TH21 GB20, then down the pinna, watched with placid wet eyes. Fingers weave into your scruff, curling, longing; consumed.

daddy issues on a biblical scale
in the afternoon we chew our pills, sweating the backs of knees, armpits, blessed the skittering of grass on down-brushed shins. pulsing behind our eyes, weeping the veins, shuddering the voltaic nerves. god, the excedrin.

photophobia in summer '24
with the gumption of some- one far wiser in years, you told us you wanted to fly. Ok, alright. Sticky fingered and knob-kneed perched up on the tower of Babel, kicking the breeze:        "sorry, are you okay?" licking bruised ankles and knees, you're still walking, modern day James Dean.
