SNAKE-S-KIN
10.15.19
disconnection from the body
exploring the new spaces within me
sluggish and invaded
what felt like a universe in my belly
now feels like the parasite that engorges
enlarges
breaking out into fits of apathy
trying to love what is temporary
an extra belly filled with
unwanted cravings
nothing fits like it did before
not the clothes holding me together
the image in the mirror
his hand on mine
