body parts MAG
December 17, 2021
my brain is like technology
i wish to power down
spill water over circuit boards
to twitch, shiver, and drown
my eyes are like two saucers
a smooth and hollow gleam
oh how i wish to break them
to shatter, splinter, scream
my lungs are like balloons
wishing they could stop
a glinting needle in my hand
to puncture, rupture, pop
my heart is like a bass drum
its steady rhythm loud
oh how i wish to silence it
to stifle, dampen, shroud
my body's like a boulder
too weighted with regret
a gentle push off steepened cliffs
to free fall, sink, forget
