Blacked out again,
unsurprisingly,
swallowing the room.
Spinning in a lucid dream,
blessed to consume.
Breaking into.
Ash shadows
drill bit chest
I am not your savior
I am a suitcase bomb
I only devour
breathing fire
and I will apologize to no one
for doing what I said I would.

I was right to run away and lock the door on you after I passed out in the kitchen and I wish I woulda known then.
Broken bird who listens like chimes.
The way you surrendered your neck
twice
first a lover
then a sacrifice.
People will tell you what they are,
you just never said battleground.

Learn to love the fall,
to disappear like a radical ghost
shaking chains as a forgotten name.
Make your nests in piles of broken mirror glass,
court heartbreak like a 19th century candlelit lover.
Smile at the No,
bring it into your chest,
breathe it in warm.
Collapse the roof,
blow out the window,
cradle your shattered legs and kiss them like sleeping children
when they try to drag your broken body from the burning building.
And get your blood all over everything.

I open pre-approved credit cards like love letters.
Growling under bedsheets.
A twitching right eye inside of blue screens.
I think my bones are going deaf.
My insides are lava
My outsides are lava
I am fractured and glowing
I am killing natives
I am slowly swallowing.
Quiet
not calm
boiling.

I was born in soft chaos
with the mystery womanhood clean on my lips.
I am
just like every other girl
and even if you can’t understand it
you can’t take it away from us.
You are right to be afraid.

Gravity pulls water onto the floor
to trace my skin like a lover.
The steamed mirror can be anyone
if you’re not a biased audience
and I paste faces on bodies for spare minutes.
My hands are loaded guns
you have to get comfortable with
on parade day.
This is not a love story
it is a witch hunt
and Gravity has been the only thing that has ever caught me.

For the days when you're moving so slow
and the universe is moving so fast.

I say
"I forgive you"
But knowing you want me when I don't want you
is the sweetest land-mine
I have ever buried.

Talk to me like
Minimum wage.
Three kids in different grades
happy to get sneakers on Christmas.
Two to a bed until puberty
hoping bus fare doesn’t go up.
Talk to me like
I’m sorry I can’t hear you
I’m scared that I’m pregnant and what my boyfriend will do
because I don’t want to marry him
but if you’re pregnant you keep it and you marry him.
Talk to me like
Can I help you?
I’ll trade you for some tuition money.
Talk to me like
Let me go check in the back
My brother’s in jail again
because he broke into our house to steal money
and he’s high again and it’s his fault
but it’s Dad’s fault for leaving.
Talk to me like
I’m sorry
I apologize
What can I do
Here’s a discount
Like she cheated
Like he’s dead
Like I’m you
in my shoes.
