§¤$*~-¨¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ # ¤ ¨ # ¤ lying # ¤ ¨ # ¤ ¨ # ¤ ¨ ¨¨¨¨-~*$¤§
#§¤$*~-¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ in my room, # ¤ ¨ ¨¨¨-~*$¤§#
##§¤$*~-¨¨ # arms flopped over the edge of the bed. ¨¨-~*$¤§##
###§¤$*~-¨ # ¤ ¨ something poking my left hand, ¨-~*$¤§###
##§¤$*~-¨¨ # ¤ ¨ something slimy, ¨¨-~*$¤§##
#§¤$*~-¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ slithering around the fingers, ¨¨¨-~*$¤§#
§¤$*~-¨¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ up the arm. # ¤ ¨ ¨¨¨¨-~*$¤§
¤$*~-¨¨¨¨¨ is it drug-fueled apathy? # ¤ ¨ ¨¨¨¨¨-~*$¤
§¤$*~-¨¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ i don't move the arm. ¨¨¨¨-~*$¤§

##§¤$*~-¨¨ whatever it is that's tasting me, # ¤ ¨ ¨¨-~*$¤§##
###§¤$*~-¨ it moves further up, # ¤ ¨ ¨-~*$¤§###
##§¤$*~-¨¨ reaches the armpit. # ¤ ¨ ¨¨-~*$¤§##
#§¤$*~-¨¨¨ i turn my head toward it. # ¤ ¨ ¨¨¨-~*$¤§#
§¤$*~-¨¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ looks like seagrass. ¨¨¨¨-~*$¤§
¤$*~-¨¨¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ it's kinda cute. # ¤ ¨ ¨¨¨¨¨-~*$¤
§¤$*~-¨¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ # ¤ ¨ # ¤ ¨ ¨¨¨¨-~*$¤§
#§¤$*~-¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ once it's up my neck and on my ¨¨¨-~*$¤§#
##§¤$*~-¨¨ face, i bite it. # ¤ ¨ ¨¨-~*$¤§##
###§¤$*~-¨ # ¤ ¨ the texture is like that of a ¨-~*$¤§###
##§¤$*~-¨¨ juicy # ¤ ¨ grape, ¨¨-~*$¤§##
#§¤$*~-¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ and the squish tastes like sweet ¨¨¨-~*$¤§#
§¤$*~-¨¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ # ¤ ¨ cucumber. ¨ ¨¨¨¨-~*$¤§
¤$*~-¨¨¨¨¨ # ¤ ¨ it's very good. # ¤ ¨ and i # ¤ ¨ ¨¨¨¨¨-~*$¤
