my emotional skin conditions
Jul 17, 2024
impervious metal protecting
me from all forms of negativity
see-through thin allowing almost
anything to pass easily out or in
cobbled together from uneven stones
bruising any who won’t leave me alone
dry and brittle flaking off to reveal
what I thought had been well hidden
neon bright announcing my existence
and spelling out my many appetites
