[Library] Anorexic for Alex

by Nikki Rice

I know of the phone calls you made,
and I know of the things that you did.

I know about the boy you snuck in,
and I know about the fear that you hid.

I know what a real friend is like,
and I know who thinks you're a prick.

I know what it means to be whole,
and I know that you just make me sick.

I know that you're nothing but trash,
and I hear that he fucks you all night.

I see that I've already won
(even though you weren't up for the fight).

Still makes for some fascinating, stark poetry. Well done.

Every single one of those statements are movements by themselves. They all cut deeply and touch me. Nice.

This is some forceful stuff. It jabs like a stabbing. Very cool!
