When my stomach lay flat,
Afflicted by shabby pains,
Teetering on the brink of an ulcer.
Yet, since our serendipitous encounter,
A swift metamorphosis has...

A scarlet scar on the left knee
Hair on my head I cut into chops myself
I dash out from under my weighted blanket of warmth

To ask for a favor

That it goes up my rear

I think you could say I'm a skeptic...

bleeding
to be heard
A canker

It's red to...
