bloodlines by stella yoo

9/27/2017

 
in this place a single body splits not into two but five odd pieces that wriggle back
into one again but soon enough a guttural murmur parts my lips: this is not mine               

a soft ravishing anhedonia lulls the same body you could once call your
own, unravels the bindings you wound so tightly around your chest, undoes the
braid of a spine that stemmed down your back                                                  

in their hearts lies their true intentions and there they will only      
remain viciously still as they speak ill of you through deafening nothings

here: take the dagger, grip it well, put it to good use. let the
words dribble out like sap in the carvings you craft in the trunk of
the family tree;                                                                              

tradition gave you nothing.
