+Library Prompt V
+2024-04-22
+
+***
+
+Under occlusive skies better left unnamed
+I toss and turn in bed, wracked with the pain
+of reminder that elsewhere in the state
+someone still towards me holds illest will,
+thinks less of their memory of me
+than perfection's divinity.
+I try
+to remind
+myself less as a salve
+than a desperate attempt to keep myself calm:
+the body takes seven years to recycle its cells,
+meaning no part of me experienced their hell
+and for what I did am no longer responsible;
+when I left, I made the cleanest break possible,
+and if they haven't changed that yet I doubt they ever will.
