writhing between a clenched fist

saying sorry

repeating words in handwriting

needles 

 

infections

acetone and bitten nails 

teasing out a knot

chipping your tooth

 

stretching muscles

sticky lips

sticky mouth

perfume in your mouth

adorned

(coated in sugar)

 

bent at the hip 

bent at the knee 

bent at the neck

wrists bent 

furrowed eyebrows

tongue

 

pain built in

saying sorry 

sending love
