Space

I take up so little space

I bend

and contort

and shrink

to fit into the tiny spaces

people carve out for me in the fabric of their lives


I take up so little space.

I edit

and delete words.

I cut down the word limit of who I am-

what I feel-

what I want -


All this for people who make me feel

like I take up too much space


fuck you
