this afternoon i saw a cowboy driving a minivan on 84 there’s not a whole lot to be said about that oh god i was worried i had a lump in my breast that my body was finally following the maternal prophecy that is passed along like a family heirloom turns out it was just one of my ribs i haven’t felt in years or maybe ever i like to pretend the aches and pains are just in various places a heart could be if we were existing on multiple planes nothing poetic about my body decaying rapidly around me because i need to stop treating it like it’s a leg caught in a trap, trying to limp its way to the end of the highway
