Knots in StomachA Story by Jesse LancasterI'm tired. A knot grows, tightens, can't explain where it comes from or why I'm feeling this, like my insides chose to rebel forcing themselves out through the hole in my stomach or up through my mouth, spill onto the pavement and shatter just like the jar but my brain just stays put, 'cause it doesn't work the way it should; too slow to tell my heart to wait and too weak to make these pieces tessellate. I guess wanted to know, no, I needed to know is this knot here because of the choices I made? or didn't make? And if it was, what if I did something different? or if I did something better will it stay or just break a little more with each and every single stupid day? Another fragment lost in the pile.
