similar to slime

i’ve been trying

to make it

so that i can make it

alright for others

who want the same

and will learn

when they are here and sludge

that it is not so great

to be similar to slime

and to have it made

for what is left

besides others who

wonder what it’s like

to be you

but them too

and so

never happy

*

i want to

make all

want i

not because i

care for me

or think i’m great

to not care either

but so people

won’t feel so lonely

as i

and i

can feel less

so too

*

we

the dressings of death

know that the

only way

to get through

is to get through

the only way

we know how,

which may include our death

or that of others

who did not figure out

the way away

from knowing they

do not know

enough

or perhaps

that they

are too dressed up

when it all goes down
