it’s misfiring.

I can physically feel it stutter again
Try to realign, again

Don’t look down.
Your eyes lie.
Don’t look up.
The mirror lies.
Click, click, click
The record is skipping

I feel the matter, my matter, churning. It’s trying.
I’m trying.
Tiny head
Thighs larger than life
Hands that feel detached from my body
Pieced together like some disproportionate frankenstein
The magnifying glass
It’s fractured
clouded
shattered

This isn’t real. This isn’t real. This isn’t real.
