I want to  starve myself
and   watch   the   bones
push  through  my  skin
until   it  breaks.  I  want
my  veins   to   settle  on
the    surface    and    the
muscles    to     protrude.
I   can   feel   the   *****
rising    in    my    mouth
when  I  swallow.   I  can
taste  the  blood  and the
acid. I  can  almost  see it
burning    through     my
teeth.  I  want  to  fill  my
stomach  with  lilacs  and
watch­     them    dissolve.
