HOW MUCH IS ENOUGH?
AS I DRAG MYSELF TO THE EXIT
I FEEL HORROR CRAWL UP MY THROATREALIZING
I HAVE HOARDED MYSELF POOR
I WAS BORN CHARITABLE 
AND I LET MY NEED
CONSUME MY SATISFACTION

I made myself pretty today,

as nice as I can be,

in your favorite mask, my dear,

so that you’ll let me leave.

The skin I stretched is dewy fresh

The clips all match my dress

I know you want my back exposed

and that you’ll be impressed

I’ve woven this with warp of flesh

And wefts just like your brother.

His tendons feel like luxury

You’ll never want another. :)

Her skull face has a partial skin mask stretched over it. She’s probably wearing a wig. Her skin is covered in vaguely anatomical patterns, while she wears a slinky dress.

If you vibe with this vibe, consider following me. I’m usually funnier. 1 like = 1 brother-in-law vivisection for fashion’s sake

Observable System Transcendence: A Collection of Signalis Poetry

I did it! I wrote fifty-six poems, one for each track on the Signalis soundtrack, and wrapped it up into a nice, shiny collection! It’s still up on AO3 and here on Tumblr, but I’ve added in a bonus poem and made it into a nice ebook over on Ko-fi! So it’s basically a fancy tip jar, which will go towards some urgent vet bills and house repairs breathing down my neck right now.

This was one hell of an ambitious project, but I never once lost inspiration. Signalis is one of the most beautiful creations I’ve ever experienced, and the fellow fans I’ve met along the way have been some of the coolest people I’ve met. Thank you so, so much to anyone who showed me any support <3

An angelic face,

Amongst his gang

Foolish you, thinking he’s out of place

He looks your way and you feel a pang

Heart calling out for him to chase

Two souls begin to move without a trace

Finally walking side by side with a mystery man

Guided by the moonlight

Unknowingly playing into his plan

He’s certain you won’t be a fight

Hand in hand under slated boards

Away from the boardwalk’s hoards

he’s simply playing before the hurt,

But you accept his flirt

You’re ready for a kiss,

Moment interrupted by menacing hiss

He sinks his teeth into your neck,

Because he knows

No one can save you under the deck

Beautiful Death

—after Botanica No. 23 by Gail Potocki

Bursting.

I am bursting at the seams. From within me, a rustle of leaves.

My skin severs, there becomes two of me. It stings, this gruesome separation of being.

Cold air floods my open wound, and I begin to bleed.

Blooming.

A buddling, from every last pump of my heart; each beat, a sproutling in the cavity.

Desecration pollinates my bloodstream. Death parrots the stench of beauty.

Begging.

There are roots in me and they are plenty.

I cannot contain them all, who must I beg for mercy?

Even in death, they will beautifully defile me.

CLASS WINDOW༄

By yuriko

I looked through

the class window

Out there, is where

Is where shadows lurk.

In the dark,

All around places

Like the park.

Outside that window

Is where danger is.

That’s why we must

Mind our business.

Go on our ways

Before the shadow

Behind you

Stays.

Writetober, Day 7- Skull

Okay, I was a day late. I was sick. Sorry. Also I wrote more generally about bones. Sorry Xakumi.

**Edit: Aaaaaand I spelled something wrong in it. It should be piles instead of pulls. Damn it.

Tall Handsome Stranger

A tall handsome stranger rode into town We wish he would have stayed one I saw his eyes from Miles Away Two stars lower than they should He had no horse But the thunder of hooves followed him Teeth carved from marble Skin of vellum He stepped over the inn And was at Bernard’s farm in Two Strides He stooped under the barn door To grab a bull In his palm “Be not afraid” A chorus whispered Nothing left but coals It stands now for weeks Outside the parish Waiting for Something Children play in its shade I heard cicadas buzzing under The vellum Shuddering Skittering It doesn’t breathe It Only Weeps Mud pools beneath its feet God help us if it doesn’t stop

Feminine Urge

A budding rose now wilted with decay

Plucked from the ground and put on display 

Adorned with thorns like razor blades

Your filthy skin I must lacerate 

Possessed with unquenchable thirst for your unholy ichor

Flourishing while I only get sicker

I’ll decimate the aggregate of everything you hold dear

Screams of agony I can't wait to hear 

May bloody rivers flow like the tears I’ve cried

Solace and serenity the day you die

-BB Bunny
