A Billion Burning Dreams
Dear Anxiety, The self is born perfect, but buckles beneath the pressure of circumstance. A soul circumcised is not allowed a certain degree of pleasure. You wear the skin of my Father.
Flick tongue of shame behind teeth of doubt. Snakebite angst — a Devil lurking
in Paradise. Old Friend, you have held my hand so tight, for so long that yours became my own. Fistful of frags, trying to squeeze blood from a stone. Rock-hard. Lapidation — the lapidary by which I have etched out the god in me.
Lapis lazuli filed down onto damnatio memoriae . Dear Anxiety, if I could marry you I would.
