Half way! Half way! Half way! Today's mood:

A special thanks to my microbio teacher for the title phrase
Respiring on Iron
I've been fitting myself into corners for weeks now
Sliding sideways into the crevices between class and work
On the days when I don't have time to cook I snack on spare change
Munching metal, respiring on iron.
I puzzle piece fit myself around the jenga tower of commitments my life has become.
Sometimes I sand down my corners to make sure I fit
I miss my corners with an absence in my chest.
At night, in the instant before I fall asleep
I close my eyes and try to remember
What quiet sounded like.
