Joyce demon 3: permanence

Permanence is scary

What if every stray mark you made lasted forever? Yikes.

i gnaw on my knuckle. i rub the skin between my front teeth. it swells into some strange, shimmering bulb. sometimes, it bursts and peels apart: my own geological formation. i kind of always imagine that i will find some sort of spirit who emerges from the eroded chasm and gives me a grateful pat on the head before dispersing into the air. but mostly i find dainty creeks of blood.

love, 

isabel

the text, cuz well........you know

“An Assortment of Demons

(in a college notebook because I am moving & everything else is in boxes)

when i was a little kid, I couldn’t hold a pencil correctly, so I had to use a squishy pencil grip

I hated it. It looked like some sort of terrible bulbous nose face

(gross grimy imprint of my thumb)

(terrible phallic shape)

(gross)

(one good part--pinkie vacuum)

I hated the way it felt in my hand, hated its terrible plastic smell, but especially I hated how no one else in the 4th grade had to use one. 

So mostly I ate them. 

I read a lot of Greek mythology books as a kid, so I knew that if you eat something you can take its powers. Eat your gods eat your enemies eat your children. 

I guess I’m a bit squishy and bulbous now, but I still have terrible hand writing”
