through the woods.


Her skin was so swollen it looked like it would burst. She played cat’s cradle while he peeled off her skin.

She’s all wood underneath.

Sloughed off her skin and there was blood in the frost, and now she doesn’t have any. She’s like a doll, all wood and strings and her eyes are dead brown. Her lips move like they’re on hinges but no sound comes out.

She has me on strings

She’s making me type

And now she and her blue fairy are running off to play.
