look at this forest you've sown
silly girl a head is
no place for a forest!
my scalp is rotting
disintegrating decay
exposed cranial tissue littered with
flaps of flesh
expired stinking meat
but you cannot see it
under my spring flower
blue bonnet
that you said looked lovely
this winter day
you've scattered your seeds your
spores
throughout my scalp
larvae laying lice silently
secretly graceful how
could i have known?
before they began to sprout
spreading beneath my
skin i cant scratch the
circus of small legs
the itch beneath
budding seeds
toxic mold spores
you've infected me you
parasite you
bastard you
poor
poor child
i'll hush.
but
tell me
when you inhale
can you feel the burrs in my lungs
spores dissipated from
open mouth to
open heart
you've filled me with
serpent spores
burrs in my chest
tell me
princess
before the hush
are you happy now?

- Comment from author about the poem: Going through heartbreak. Would love feedback, maybe new/exciting words? Do I say spores too much?

There are several references to spores. But, I don't mind. Enjoyed reading it. The first lines I found to be quite visual, in a gross way, but that is the point 🙂
