Meat Habitats :: Angela Hume
/
EXCERPT
a hook shock
in the cortisol
night sign
over a door
in riotous green
neon blinks
freedom inside
blood acts sounds
collapses
into acquiescence
woke up to the stun
of a body intact
you thought your body was your own
but a body is not a boundary
a door is not a dam
THE BOOK
