there’s a hole on my tooth
and my tongue always manages to find it
the human body is so good at finding imperfection
like how I always know where to look
for the wrong, the bad, and the ugly
even if all of my other twenty eight teeth are fine
there will always something broken
if there isn’t, it’s time to bite my tongue again.
t.l.
never have I bitten anything with this much damage
than my own flesh
But that’s because you need to know, for survival. Evolution doesn’t care if you’re great, it just looks for the thing that’s going to bring you down. Before you reproduce. Like dying of an abscess.
