'warning: poss trig'
someone should have warned me.
so careless, such bad etiquette.
you're supposed to warn people
if there's blood or torture or self-harm.
also intentional humiliation
inflicted by a stranger with perfect teeth.
there's supposed to be a caution line:
blood, teeth, disrespect!and the ruin of a dream is worse than blood.
double double **poss trig** for that.
they won't archive a violent post,
but I tow my dying dreams behind me
like a cheval mirror on a sled.
the strings that pull the sled
are poked through my abdomen
with fishhooks.
where is the site administrator?content like that; it's inexcusable.
there's supposed to be a notice.
trailing clouds of glory
I would have turned around.
probably.maybe I would not have turned around,
but at least it would be my choice.
someone should have warned me!oh wait. I just remembered.
my father leaning down to my mother's swollen belly
that glorious bright winter day, whispered,
exactly one life ago today,
whispered, "warning: poss trig"

((((badhaircut))))
That awesome and frightening, beautiful and (excuse the pun) cutting. It's so sad that you need to know these things, that you have the knowledge to express yourself like this. You shouldn't have to have that burden. I wish I could take the burden away, I wish you could ride the sled and not have to tow it behind.
