this one i read two years ago in molly by blake butler, and couldn't stop thinking about. the book is bleak and pretty hard to read, and i found blake butler (who features heavily in the book, as it's about his wife) kind of insufferable. but there were moments of stark beauty within it.

the poem is not online but i found a screenshot of a goodreads comment that quoted the poem that someone posted on tumblr
