anorexia
bones peek from skin like fish gliding along the surface of a lake
cracked lips twist into a frown
only water passes them
scars litter
wrists
hips
thighs
the Scale is god
the Loss is food
the Pain feels good
maybe if you’re thin enough you’ll disappear
maybe if you’re thin enough the ache will go away
maybe if you die it will end
