Untouched
I wonder who will notify my family
When I’ve passed
Who will tell the world
That I’m gone
Will my words be enough
To show how much I fought
What I’ve overcome
Will my voice be forgotten
Will my pages fade
Become Meaningless
Untouched
When I’ve passed
Who will tell the world
That I’m gone
Will my words be enough
To show how much I fought
What I’ve overcome
Will my voice be forgotten
Will my pages fade
Become Meaningless

Destroyed
PHOTO TRIGGER WARNING
Because you chose to ignore
Words written in bold
And do your own thing
You made my breasts unbearable
Unbeautiful
(I’m entitled to make up a word here)
Unwearable
Unimaginably painful
Just all together un
This surgery was to
Help me with pain
You should be ashamed of yourself
Because you chose to ignore
Words written in bold
And do your own thing
You made my breasts unbearable
Unbeautiful
(I’m entitled to make up a word here)
Unwearable
Unimaginably painful
Just all together un
This surgery was to
Help me with pain
You should be ashamed of yourself

Madness
Humming, an old woman rocks herself
A man repeats a word again and again
Two older women are fighting for a doll
Somewhere a. radio is blaring loud
Another ordinary day begins as usual
And I am part of this community of fate
My new home is a caring home
Defect entity
A thinking mind and a loving heart
Locked in a frail disabled body
One of God"s abandoned children
Superfluous and useless for society
Mercíless sorted out and deported
A deeply desperate fallen angel
With unsuitable disheveled wings ...

Dear Creator, we need to talk
Five days of constant pain
five days or wanting to break
the forth wall of reality
and talk to whoever thought
creating nerve endings
was a good idea
My body betrays me
I take meds for nausea
I take meds for pain
I sleep too much
and don't eat enough
five days of counting down
some unknown number
like there is a known solution
at the end of infinity
No one tells you
how time slows down
becomes infinity
with ad breaks
where maybe I can get up
go for a walk ...

Dear Indestructible
undo the idea
that we must be fixed
to live the days we deserve,
that breathing requires bandages
as we suck down lungfuls of hope
into our last remaining fuck
healing was never the journey,
existing was
it was listening
to the blunt struck chords
of your nervous system
to hear distorted music
as you shuffled to the sound
it was the dawn silence
as you placed one shuddering foot
in-front of another, out of alignment
longing for the earthly warmth
of a prayer-soaked sun
...

Presumed hunger
Premeditated situations
and pre-cooked annihilations.
Preheated eliminations,
precepts, losses, predators,
nothing changes the colors of poverty.
Chameleons are the rich ones
and they change, change color
and change again to a color they don't have.
The rich eat poverty for breakfast
so let's change directions,
change emotions,
and let's eat the rich
even though the rich are poor
in nutrients and proteins.
Since they have many colors,
we will eat them with our eyes
and season them...
and pre-cooked annihilations.
Preheated eliminations,

change emotions,
and let's eat the rich
even though the rich are poor
in nutrients and proteins.
Since they have many colors,
we will eat them with our eyes

Hypertrichosis and cola
Phimosis,
cirrhosis or
osteoporosis,
however,
a nevermoredyingosis
is the main disease.
Bursitis,
sinusitis or
rhinitis,
just like that,
the completestupidititis
is the endemic disease.
