She wonders what she would find, if she could pry open her skin, if she could look beneath the layers of them creeping like a secret up her spine.
She wonders if they would spill forward, the blood that binds them just as her own body bears his scars; if the polarity of her could be reversed and they could stand so safely on her insides, far removed from where she might do them harm.
