empty microwaves still spin by ~wyzthais:iconwyzthais:



they wrapped my sister in her own arms
to keep her from beating her calves black and blue

tiny fists make tiny bruises.

they dragged her through the front door, naked but for that stiff, white fabric
“help” written on her face in wet blotches of mascara

scratched toes cling to concrete stairs.

they took her to the funny farm, it’s quiet
except when people laugh from down the hall

mom won’t visit.
