Closet Space
By lupus tenebrae
You left me there in closet space
...
...
tiny hands
curled into cloven
hooves and
bloody murder, mouthed like
a tired mantra that
cuts
to the bone.

I figured since it's Child Abuse Prevention Month, I'd write something alluding to my rather sordid history with closets.Awards
