*Snip*

The angle of an arm;
Curve of bone and hollow shadows.
A reflection in a mirror, unfamiliar
And unrecognizable.
What one sees and what is seen,
Two separate realities.
A comforting hunger.
The conquest of desire, want, need.
A power over the body,
Intense and compelling.
But cultivated and honed, sharp
And shocking in the realization
Of the self-destructive impulse.
