Octopuses have three hearts. I’ve been told that I do too. Is it the way I look at you or the way I listen? Is it how I place my hand on your shoulder or how I smile?
i hear
your words, your insults, your mocking
i heard it when you called me stupid, special
as if i had no ears
i see
how you look at me, how you judge me
