life in garbage bags keep them sealed or tear apart everything i own

helplessly staring each attempt brings atrophy wither to nothing

don't eat city snow it's soiled and impure, its flakes do not sparkle

a cat named deadline creeping, stalking predator i squeak under claws

the sand grains settled someone flips the hourglass not allowed to rest

horizontal lines mar the calendar each year please don't fade away

an itch in my skull paralysis, eternal explosions, ears ring

manic panic dye colours my adolescence hot pink memories

clawed toes reaching out a gentle touch — acknowledge you have now been booped

everything at once they say good things come in threes bad things come less please

first snow of the year delicate flakes falling down stay inside today

cozy in my nest save from predation and fear never learn to fly

new fights, challenges tackle them all together faith in each other

civilization the weight of risky parkour single hunger bar

clumsy limb movements miscalculated spasms my beverage soaks through

a hand reaching out encouragement; shared interest thanks for the support <3
