that's_not_my_name
raze the lift of a name
when you hear it called
the sound it makes
when it's known
quick to betray
or to be betrayed
languid and sick
in its bones

who we are
and what we need
are mutually exclusive
and bent at the knees

kerry i have trouble pronouncing my own name. not because it's complicated or unusual. it just feels strange in my mouth.

"are you talking to me?"
"clearly."
"my name isn't jamie."
"oh. well. you look like a jamie."

kj, who gifted me a pair of dragonfly earrings and a barrette shaped like a spider, called me "the girl who likes bugs." that was okay too.
