this is the part where i
grow back my worn out
spine, and knuckle bones

and it hurts like
trembling, and pins and needles.

catharsis, they would say
if they had only known
where i had

 been, wasting all
 that time in some
  sick catatonia,

fuck- let me go to an opium den
like any normal anachronism.

{ your heart is an opium den your heart is an opium den your heart
                       is                                       }

i was an alien and
he wanted to fuck me and

at three in the morning
i went looking for UFOs
- i wanted to go home and
outer space was as good a place
as any

{ i regret i regret i regret i regret, the wounding touches and what i did to that oceans-away love }

darling did i not say
you could have all
of me

   - i want to think i meant it

 just let me drown
 you don't have to be cruel


"lynne is an unrecognized disease in psychological terms, where the person will hold their hands around their throats, and scream to the point of losing their voice, because they are screaming for the one thing they can either no longer have or no longer reach."

 really,
 it's the least
 i could do.
something old and left mostly unsaid.
i mean it.
