never was the one to keep our plants alive in the sun

feeding all the slugs and ticks that dragged around in the mud

not me

not me

as if it was torture porn

this rat piles me up to my neck in centipedes and scorpions

my dear

don't you know it's a trick?

not me

not me

so if it's my birthday

did i just get lucky?

or did god just toss me in?

lost my little brother

am i just a killer?

was he just a bug i squished?

who were you to call me out on walking on two legs not six

and six times i got swatted down in the mesh

i was gnawing on all your debris

so if it's my birthday

were you born just like me?

with my very heart and teeth?

ate the other children hatching from my mother

baby won't you let me feed?
