Limax Gigantus
(2026- Metal, fabric, human)

Or Giant Slug. Gliding through the dirt, slugs leave behind glittery trails of secretions that are nurturing and communicative, slime that is part of them and part of the environment, or part of neither. Soft and dirty.
This body can be a place for transformation, a vessel for exploring the space in between, a reminder to love our monsters, or it can just be a very big slug.

When 

I go out at night I always have to find a place with no houses so my breath doesn’t affect their closed windows with thick thick drapes draped

I wanna give you my heart on a platter with

And keep you from going onto the street ins earch for

And protect you with walls made of my skin and hands and blown up until its thinly encompassing all the trees you could ever want

And stopthe world

And stop the world

And stop the world

And stop the world’

And understand that you mighy hate my blown up skin and heart on a platter and look for my blood because it’s the only place with enough moisture to keep you from dehydrating when touching mybsalty and poisonous skin when I gently lift you from the concrete and you retract until you can pretend you’re safe again

 

In a pudde

A puddle

And

 

Slugs don’t have bones but I do

Feeling like my charging cable is faulty and am now reduced to a mute screen with a memory card that’s counting down from 10 and have to go to the nearests hop to get a cheap new one that will work for a few months only

 

I just want to linger all the time and if I were to never remember new things I would not mind lingering for the next 20 years hmmhmm

If I could return (after 20 years the lingering will have been enough, I think)

And if I could balloon into a shield I wouldn’t mind the world tripping me up but I cnat and it is all endlessly sensless

Slugs

 

Icy sinister cynicism

What if I left my keys in the door again at three in the morning and instead stand in the snow for an hour and call my friend and they let me in to their warm house even though I am wet and smelly and I sleep the deepest I have slept in months on their couch and in the morning they bring me the best coffee I have ever tasted and we talk about nothing for a while and I am caught

There's nothing like a deadline to break through the walls if embarrassment 

 

 

Bodies expanding and retracting like a worm

Hey lets meet up somewhere in February

And the headlights can blind my eyes instead of yours because im big and strong and won't mind as much

The mucus being expelled from my eyeballs and under my tongue can meet you like an afterparty where we drink tea and chat at your grandmas old house
