di(sgusting)vine
i pick at my fingers
clawing away like a cadged animal
skin this dirty i think cannot be loved by god
i must purge iti pick at my fingers
carving out chunks of my own flesh
sometimes i dare to devour it, to enjoy it religiouslyto make it some sort of twisted sacred sacrifice
i wonder if this is how jesus feels
when we break his body and drink his blood
i wonder if this is what it's liked to be lovedmy body is a sin i decide
i must purge it
