Choking back strawberries in a whirl of anxiety
You were only ever art.
Tasting your veins on a Spring morning and wanting to spit the blood from the back of my throat.
Oh, honey.
Oh, this disgusting act.
Your legs kick at the backboard leaving my head in a fit of
Spin.
Spin.
Spin.
Oh, baby.
Oh, pathetic I.
-L. D.

“I rise like the sun above olive trees, like the moon above date palms. Where there is light, I shall be. Where there is darkness, there is none of me. I rise like the moon above date palms. I am counted as one among stars.”
— Book of the Dead, Ancient Egyptian Funerary Text, circa 1600 BCE

the thing
about rape
is you can’t help
but learn
to be always
out for blood,
even if it’s your own.
there were times
I went hunting for him
in my skin.
There were times
I thought
my wrist
was his grin.
If you hit the right vein
you bleed in spurts
like someone
trying to hold
their laughter in.
