survival post-mortem

cuttlefishculler:

i will not slink
like a mourning mother,
not like a drowned bird or
like a wilting orchid but i will
coagulate. i am scars,
and i will harden to the world.

you tell me that when one is broken
there is only one way
to stitch yourself back together
(with talk therapy and tangle toys)
but i say: “fuck you,
this is my pain. and i will wrap
tape and staples around myself
if i want to.”
