sheet-like over furniture,
create sticky mausoleums
out of half-chewed pencils
and worn-once onesies.

rosy rearview Past leeches
I don’t know if you are real
and I don’t want to be fooled
anymore, letting myself be born
into beliefs that are both wrong
and profoundly harmful – two-edged
sword slicing my insides
as it tears stranger into enemy.
I feel silly in ways
I didn’t as a kid,
writing to you
this time unsure.
