The Shame of Scars-Very touching and emotional. Empowering too, and it kind of makes us realize how much weight society puts on physical appearence.

Fateless Inconsistencies-I liked this one a lot. Some favorite parts:

Flashes of light in the darkness,
the steaminess of late summer
bringing me back to a place I don't want to be.

Maybe if I could blame,
it would be easier.
Maybe if there was someone to hate,
I could scream and rail
at these fateless inconsistancies.
^That stanza is really cool because, to me, it's this cool kind of realization for the narrator...like there's no one to lay the blame on except themself, or they have no one to turn to and run to, and they just have to rely on themself. Very cool.

As I read it again, I like it even more
