#OctPoWriMo 2021 — Day 31: “Apocrypha”
silence is a form of security
#OctPoWriMo 2021 — Day 30: “Tomatoes”
I sawed through
tomatoes in my sleep.
#OctPoWriMo 2021 — Day 29: “Lonely Letters”
there are nights
I cling to her letters
#OctPoWriMo 2021 — Day 28: “Non-Consensual Seizure”
they slapped a lot on me, a lot
into me, I was mummified…
#OctPoWriMo 2021 — Day 27: “Revelation”
symbolism reigns
and your decoder is broken
#OctPoWriMo 2021 — Day 26: “Baby, This Ain’t Elm Street”
In this dream,
I’m in Nancy Thompson’s pajamas
