How are you?
How are you? How is quarantine? Are you doing okay buddy?
I Feel Mentally Sick
Feelings
churn
deep in my stomach
(away from my heart).
And sometimes
they bubble up
(begging to escape)
b u r n i n g
all of my tender flesh.
My feelings are acidic monsters
that terrorize my body
into convulsions.
(why can’t they just go away?)
But no matter how far I push them down
they always
find their way
back up
into
a messy
e x p l o s i o n.
