i leave behind residue in beds i am grimy and saturated from dirt my muddy footsteps follow you into the bathroom and i smudge the mirror with my fingers, crusted and cracked from the heat i follow the shadow of the sun and trail their streaks of death it drips down my thighs and stains your carpets i am vermin i am disease i am death and decay my stench sullies the walls and my greasy hair sours your stomach you pinch your nose as i pass by and i cannot find it in me to blame you. i would too.
