The Immortality of YouthYou still believe that boysThe Immortality of Youth by ~Psyghostis
with pretty faces get to be
the lovers of history;
but the men with the obvious
symptoms of manliness -
quashed nose, dark ridges
running between their eyes, and
a mouth full of teeth where
coal could shine brighter -
these, at least, are the ones
allowed to grow up.
They never rise from the bed
of a mentor, with mussed hair,
from messed sheets. These men
rise from the arms of women,
and take their place amongst duty.
But they do not last
the five-hundred years
that you do;
they do not last
the age of history.
Coercive DonationsWe spoke about donating our bodies to science once,Coercive Donations by ~Psyghostis
and in a rage about everything I hated
(myselfmyselfmyself)
I said I’d love nothing more than to give myself up.
You said I can’t; ‘you have to be dead.’
“Doctors are doing a pretty good job
in going for what they want, then,” I replied.
nervosa, cute devil'thin thin thinnervosa, cute devil by ~diddlyhohum
it doesn't matter what i
am wrapped in as long as i look
thin
apple? 55 calories. i will be
as small as my mother's salary
(she doesn't work, yeah ) 55 of 200
for the day if i even allow myself
that.'
i keep thinking of pat and the
way his bones stuck out like spider legs
when the cancer came. i keep thinking
of the swing and the way we swang
under trees with stars for limbs.
the way you held my small southern
wrist when you sunk down south to lick-
good kitty kitty. eat up. eat while
i am still enough. i keep thinking of
how mommy didn't say anything for months
when she walked in on me bare-assed
choking on stom
