a mirror that i avoided for years, panicked i might expose myself and call bloody mary by her name. an apparition i’d rather bury. my favorite holidays: the anniversary of when victor stitched my body together, the parts that i could never wash the slime off of under the knife, stuffed with pumpkin guts and bandaged with papier-mâché magazine clippings. and halloween, which are both nostalgic of my past costumes. editor’s note: some of these ingredients never go out of season.
