my brain’s scrambled
it’s not big enough to hold
everything that’s happened
within my fucked-up family
it can’t make connections
takes the shortcut to my abuse
mires itself in acute loneliness
sticky consequences
causing me to interrogate
my motivations
to distrust others
it short-circuits
my heart goes up in flames
