The ghost carcass
Exoskeleton
Stamped
Naked bones in the wet impostered earth
Cheap cement substitutes
Trampled tramp
Another line,
The same ones
Over and again
You take up all my useless time
So I sit
Perched above the baby fork
A fish out of water
Poking overcooked yoke
Wondering if you ever gave a shit
Unfurled leaves
Empty pleas
Puncture broken parts
I can’t even feel the satisfaction of hunger anymore
Bleeding out
Green
With seething envy
For an ego not torn apart
By tissue paper promises
Melting love like soft impressions
Lasting only until the next reign
Of trickling illusions
Linseed oil, liquid feeling or brush
To wash away whatever it was
That selfish pig meant
xo
Pigment
One wonders where this leads until the devastating last two lines. Bravo for stating it so well.

Thanks Niki. ❤️ also, I’ve seen your comment on my YouTube channel and I’m digesting it. I think you’re pretty amazing and my vitamin D levels are also the tank. But look how we persevere in spite of everything.

Oh thanks so much E! I wasn’t sure it was okay to leave a link, like, is that polite? So I removed it. But thank you and I saw you have a new one! These are helping me so much. I can’t even begin to tell you have grateful I am for your time and big brain taking big ideas making them easy to understand. That’s a gift. ♥.

😁😁😁You’re welcome to leave links here. For years when online forums were first becoming a thing, I read through all the comment sections on posts about trauma, abuse and healing and often learned more from the comments than I did from the fancy articles. Sharing is caring.
Sorry it took me so long to reply to the video comment. You said so many great things! It was happily overwhelming (and I overthink).
Hearing you say I take big ideas and make them easy to understand is my favorite thing to hear-that’s my goal!
❤️
