Salt

this is how champions are made.
this is how hip bones are shattered.
this, this, this,

holy god almighty,
what am i doing?




this is not what my father wanted for me.
this is not what any father wants for his daughter.






this is how champions are made.
this is how integrity, tact, and excuses
are lost.

lost, lost, lost.

chicago is failing to lick my wounds in the way i had hoped it would.
if anything,

salt, salt, salt.
