Flesh is a constant haunting.

Airea D. Matthews, from “Select passages from The holy writ of us,” in Simulacra

I’m so fucking tired of haunting this body, I just wanna move on.

Your skin is a book, mired in lines and dots that tell me the story of your life, and baby do I wanna turn your pages.

Thoughts of you are just running circles around my head, like you’ve crawled under my skin to clutch at my lungs and push the air from them. And some day I’ll reach into my chest and pull you out through all the bones and resplendent, harmoniously screaming pain.

[monstersuggestion]

This year I won’t make something good, but I will make something.

[monstersuggestion]

Yeah, go ahead!

I am an archive of terrible things.
