aita for trying to liven up my workspace

i (late 30s, m) have been conducting an arts project in the crawlspace of my work, but my boss doesn't seem to appreciate the drawings of my coworkers as animals i've been doing. he says it is "scary" and "weird". i think it's a fun way to bring everybody together. i'm pretty sure he's avoiding me because i stroked his neck, which i get was maybe misinterpreted, but he hasn't said anything else about it. am i going to get fired? was i in the wrong?

what if you invited me to stay in a haunted house that you rented for a week and it was us and 2 other people and it was the first time i felt belonging ever and then half the time i still felt othered but it was such a welcomed change from the monotony id dealt with before that i didnt even mind. and what if there was this knock at each door that shook the foundations of the house and we all sat in our rooms and didnt open our doors and what if the house said to help me get home and what if the house cried for me to get home and what if i ran and danced through the house and knew the house was my home and then i became the knock at each door and none of you opened your doors and what if then you realized i was missing and what if you found me trying to go deeper into the house and what if you carried me away from the door nailed shut and what if you sent me away and told me to go home and i laughed in your face and what if you said it was important that i forgot everything and went home immediately and what if instead of driving away down the road i drove into a tree and killed myself. what then

Animals caught in a trap will bite off their own limbs to escape. The snake that swallows its own tail will die of starvation. It's Last Word Wednesday.

what if my grandmother tried to resurrect her brother, but instead created a mirror image of the person she failed to save.

and what if my mother fell in love with her reflection and, although the love was there, it wasn't enough for her, and so it killed her.

and what if you chose me again and again in every reality, even though I don't understand why. Even though it means getting dirt stuck under your nails and splinters lodged in the soft flesh of you from digging your way to me through hell. Again and again, even though it kills you.

and what if your reflection frees my reflection and they also fall in love, and we were all simultaneously alive and dead, like Schrodinger's cats from the centre of the earth, because time will always be the snake reaching back to taste itself. because we declared ourselves holy and did not relent until the universe agreed. because everything that has happened will happen again, and also will never happen again. because I love you enough to reshape reality until it holds you.

Anna. Anna. You left your friends for me, Anna. You left your mother and your sister and her little baby and all the people you love for me, Anna. I think I might be furious at you for that. I cannot conceive of a world where this is a kindness you have done me; where this is anything but one thrust of a sword that must be met with another. How could you wound me this way? Why couldn’t you have left me to die, loving me afar, like the moon?

the “i love only you. only you. only ever you” to “you’ll die alone. you’ll die watching your own blood seep out over goldenrod and bluestem, clutching the broken bones in your throat, and you’ll remember, then, that i might have saved you, that i loved you enough to try” pipeline
