Internal Operations

Sometimes, reminders you're alright don't really help

They chide the side of you that shares your fears of health

There's no logic sharp enough to make it leave

Why not invite it in and see where it might lead?

The body mentions solutions that it needs

Our minds will try responding complicatedly

We're just shaky Jenga towers with those plans

Why not abandon them and see where pieces land?

Internal operations overwhelm our goals

Of filling in our holes alone and hating aid when it goes poorly

So if I push away, will you push towards me back?

I am used to choosing distance from

All assistance where my scares attack

They're replicating now

I've been hatching them somehow

I'm electing not to stay their incubator

Internal operations overwhelm our goals

Of filling in our holes alone and hating aid when it goes poorly

So if I push away, will you push towards me back?

I am used to choosing distance from

All assistance where my scares attack

They cut me low today

I'm electing not to stay an incubator
