Little beast, how doth thou ravage my heart?

Someone once told me that explaining is an admission of failure.

Like any / unloved thing, I don’t know if I’m real /

when I’m not being touched.

“I wanted to take him home and rough him up and get my hands inside him, drive my body into his like a crash test car. I wanted to be wanted and he was very beautiful, kissed with his eyes closed, and only felt good while moving.”

When Micah Nemerever said "He wanted to break julian’s body open and move inside it alongside him, rib cages interlaced around a single heart". and when Richard Siken said "I wanted to take him home and rough him up and get my hands inside him, drive my body into his like a crash test car."

–Richard Siken, "Cover Story"

Additionally, readers began to ask me if the poems were “true,” by which they meant, “Did they really happen?” which seemed both beside the point and also intrusive. I realized that if they thought poems were biographically accurate, then they could walk away, knowing I was just a sad little man.

Richard Siken, “Little Beast”

[roses-and-sundries]

reread some richard siken and decided to try a new format. might change it up later

[bleachedduck]

(...) Everyone could see the way his muscles worked,

            the way we look like animals,

                his skin barely keeping him inside.

      I wanted to take him home

and rough him up and get my hands inside him, drive my body into his

    like a crash test car. (...)
