    Clementine von Radics
    “Everything about my heart is a crime scene.
    I drink to forget things it takes me 2 beers to name.

    Their cold hands and bitter mouths keep kissing me awake
    when I have asked them nicely and then not-so-nicely
    to be left alone.
    I have nothing left to say to the ghosts.
    Two decades full of nothing but monsters and crime scenes
    and sometimes I am the monster and sometimes
    I am the crime scene. There is nothing I would undo
    so much as things I wish would wake up forgotten.”
