How do I know fear?
Let me count the ways.
I am afraid of getting cut up
rearranged
stitched and glued together.
...
I’m afraid of the pictures
I have seen
and what is waiting for me

New at Last Grotto: "Snake" by Julian Vale
A portrait of intimacy withheld — close bodies, small negotiations, imagined warmth. Beyond the body lies the tenderness we sometimes have to imagine.

crushing your delicate, frail body
when all I want

the weight of my sleeping body
on its delicate, frail body.

Hi, I'm Reckless & Gay.
I have attachment issues, questionable coping mechanisms, and a Notes app.
So naturally, I write poetry.
Expect homosexuality, emotional damage, yearning & poor decisions.
Welcome to the scene of the crime. 🖤
