If you take away my rights

I'm going to take away your sleep

by invading your motherfucking nightmares

by becoming the mold on your ceiling

by splitting the skin of your fingers, causing hangnails

by whispering from the walls all your darkest secrets

by chilling you to the bone during the worst winter night

by stuffing your head with hay fever with every spring breeze

by boiling your blood on the longest summer day

by crackling your bones like leaves each autumn

by blistering your feet until they ache at the slightest movement

by dripping sweat into your eyes, burning them with salt

by cursing the very ground you walk upon

by invading your house with spiders and silverfish

by dampening the air around you, so you never feel dry

by constricting your heart so it never beats without pain

and I will do it without stepping one foot out of my door

because I will be in your head

in your marrow

in the blood dripping off your hands

Reminder that you don't have to debate your right to exist with anyone. Protest against the forces trying to take away your rights, yes, but you do not have to engage with individuals who want to invalidate your humanity.

Come again? IF my objection is honored??

So they give me the right to object but intend to disregard my objection.
Fuck you Instagram.
