🖤🔥 NEW POEM — SCORCHED STRAYS 🔥🖤
“I want birth reversed.
My own uterine demise.”
Uterine Undoing confronts trauma and dissociation without comfort or apology. It names the wound.

I Remember Jaci In my elementary days My morning alarm Was an angry woman Threatened by my existence Resentful to be "raising" The offspring of a woman With whom my father cared To share his last name With the switch of the light Came the impact of her voice Armed with all the hate Born of her own trauma 1/3
Naked, save for the open bathrobe Hanging on her shoulders Her bare breasts In my face, like an insult - Like a threat Though she was twenty-something, They drooped pitifully, As sorrowful and exhausted as I I absorbed every blow Of each insult she spat At my clumsy attempts At working my buttons and snaps Every stinging slap As she took over the job Squeezing the air from my stomach Forcing closed My too-small pants 2/3
There's no mystery to The origin of the panic With which I sometimes wake In midlife My mind instantly snapping on Hypervigilantly prepared For the storm The recovery takes time To slow my terrified heart, Slamming against my chest Untie the tense knot In my torso's middle The psychological wounds Still bringing me physical pain Though logically, I know She isn't here Somewhere deep within me She always will be J. C. 11.19.25 3/3
I Remember Jaci

Poem on red background with white text reads as follows: The toddler in my chest Having a tantrum again Pudgy infant hands desperately tugging With the strength of feral weeds growing through concrete slabs Caged lions have had weaker bites Innocent fingers snapping cold bones Knowing that decaying ribs and tar soaked lungs function only as a prison cell Until they become a hearse With your head on my chest You can hear the fervent cry of my little sister The screams and hollow aches of child bones groaning and shrieking Twisting and grinding Reaching out Wanting to grow Trying to figure out the capacity of her own voice The boundaries of my own body Fleshy tendrils rusting metal Haunted melodic echo canaries in a cave
Trauma tantrum is my recent poem
Wrote it whilst thinking about the ache of loneliness that sits in my chest and how badly I wish I could protect my siblings from the same feelings.

Poem titled lethal that reads: Walls dripping Social kitten Kitty flipping Lethal evening Capricious feelings Brain slipping Heat hitting Table tipping Ego splitting Restricted breathing Chest heaving Are you cheating Starting fires isn't healing Catty bitching Why don't you listen That fucking kitchen Criminal scheming Gaslighter deceiving Coersive teachings Intimidation through screaming Nighttime beating Never leaving Repetitive cycle Crash and spiral Abuse-prone lifestyle
Making poetry out of traumatic core memories is how we coping rn 🫡🫡

Internal complex
shows a true North
not yet achieved
as old monsters and
ghosts daily challenge
the fragile peace and
#understanding
of this trauma torn
Soul.
