there is something disgusting stuck in my throat. the dogs are barking. i gnaw on the joints of my hands to the beat of their dissonance; this is what got me sick in the first place. me and my butterfly wings, my butterfly knife and my butterfly rash. winter is always diseased. i just want to be left alone yet i swell and secede, i urge and i can't keep ignoring, this death will be the death of me. i hate me
