yesterday i revised the poem from the 20th. it's much less technically abysmal now, even though a couple lines still bug me.
a screenshot of a poem in my notes app, with text as follows:

always the cat, and never the mouse,
forever the aggressor with doubts.
she costumes herself the huntress,
but what she needs can't come from it.

sees blood in the water,
tease lambs to her slaughter.
she draws fangs on with sharpie,
but she's got angst for skipped heartbeats.

her needs gone unseen,
her heart’s become green.
so the pattern repeats,
she pursues from defeat.

jaded for what she’s now chasing,
fakes a hunger to hide cravings,
trade them for half-heart’s audacity,
the other half-heart lost tragically.

when will it be her turn?
to have her back to the wall.
and will she ever learn?
how to be the one to fall.

wrote another poem this morning. it's rough and doesn't quite work the way i want it to, but it's raw feeling sketched, and here it is:

wrote a poem today.
a screenshot of a poem in my notes app, with text as follows:

i catch fire, it's slow now, low now.
i burn gentle, but i grow now, i know now.
i flow from my kindling to fuel in the moment,
i dance as i glow now, flames flicker with portent.
watch the embers climb to a blaze before thee;
i will tower high, twist and writhe, i'll adore me.

my heat is cold now, but not for all of time.
i will grow bold now, to enthrall and love mine.
i will leave my mark on your shattered hearts,
i fill with gold now, your cracks and your scars.
take of my warmth, as i become so much more.
burn away my thorns, cut free my roses with a sword, and love me like i'm yours.

things aren't perfect, but it's all been slowly getting better, and it's only up from here. 54 days and counting since the last BPD episode. and with nobody to offload my emotional regulation onto anymore. i'm getting better by myself, for the first time. (pic: me with no makeup besides lipstick)

mechanization. we replaced scythes with various farming machines and landscaping power-tools which are more specialized and more labor-efficient at cutting whatever form of lawn, weed, or harvest you're looking to scythe down.

started to write a vent post and accidentally flowed it into yet another shitty poem, oops this one is so incomplete, but it's got a raw nerve to it that i keep feeling touched lately, so i will definitely flesh it out more soon
a screenshot of my notes app containing a poem that reads as follows:

all the talk of community, and how we are not alone,
rings hollow and upsets me when i stare at an empty phone.

everyone abandons eventually, and flees faster the tighter you cling.
people only tolerate despair if they pity you, poor little thing.

you have to heal alone, you must solitarily atone.
if you have nothing good to offer, then you are nobody's daughter.

can they consume you, or does your bitter taste make them run?
go away, sad little girl, you should know that you're no fun.

writing bad poetry in the notes app again this morning. related to last night's shorter poem, and the more hopeful poem from a while back.
a screenshot of my notes app, containing a poem that reads as follows:

i hope my sisters can thrive,
in spite of torrents of torment.
i hope i merely survive,
but i don't know that i'll make it.

i would give the last gasp of my light
to get my sisters through another night.
if i could burn myself to keep her warm,
i would get these girls through the storm.

but it so often feels
that no light remains. 
a darkness congeals
from cold ashen pains. 
the world always steals
any hopes ever gained. 
and this hurt never heals, 
it only drives me insane.

how can i help you?
when i can't even get up.
how can i reach you?
in these chains and cuffs.
how can i save you?
if i am never enough.
how can i be you?
when i'm unworthy of love.
