where my urge leads no more,
swallowed, waist-deep
in the gore of the forest.
A boreal feast.
Let it finish me, please.”

Multiple-personality
ReplyDeletego-go dancer
bursts of
behavior,
frequent blackouts,
switches to the voice of a young child
or
a white Southern racist woman.
Alternate personalities,
a psychotherapist
begins
to suspect identity disorder

it’s hard
to
alternate odd personalities,
some inhabiting personalities
flashbacks may be
humorous, but
