but “because I couldn’t help it”

silent killer haiku

what is life about

if not the running

“There are no gestures, words, or sighs that do not contain the sum of all the crimes human beings have committed, and commit.”

“my wounds
are mine to master,
all the better to get
stronger, faster”

“just let the soft
animal of your body
love what it loves,”
she said.

I give myself to ___
not because I am good at ___
but because ___ makes me happy.
