I don’t have much else to say about this that I haven’t already said in the author’s note, but I hope you all enjoy. This one’s quite close to my heart. ~ I would love to know what your favorite in the collection, just for fun <3 ~ Huge thanks to… • Toko (@TokoWrites), May (@ap0l0), and Squidy (@Squidy-IceCream) for critiquing this, encouraging me, and helping me make this piece better — whether you knew it or not <3 • That one Greek mythology book I read when I still lived in the U.S. and my dad for buying it • Ocean Vuong for his incredible poetry and inspiring me and (hopefully?) making me a better poet
