Body
My elbow pops
Like the way the word
Snap dragon sounds
My freckles aren't constellations
They're reminders that I am not
Dark and ancient
Like my ******* father
My hair
FRIZZY
Like a pumpkin on fire
Voice
So sweet it makes me sick
And now all my teeth have fallen out
My throat swollen
A cave with an avalanche stuck inside
Dead bats
And stalactites like toothpicks
I don't need
Nails
Like tree bark
Hollow in all the right places
Scars
Like a record
Of the way I hurt myself
Put it on Repeat
Till it scratches
Cheeks like high school
Like humiliation
With four eyes perching
Not lucky clovers
And eyes glued on
With one glued on wrong
And knees that I'm constantly falling down on
