The Skinny
8-8-17


It's the wrong kind of happiness guiding me
again. I don't know where
it finds the time. I don't got some.
You can only fatten up a hog so much
before the slaughter without
ruining the meat. I'm on the
underside, undersized, being
forced against the inner
working of my skin. This is
a truth. We all die alone,
so what do we know?
