“He had no idea how long the body had been out there, but scavengers should have come by now. Vultures. Wolves. It was like they could smell the evil on this man, the poison in his veins. Nazis were so foul that not even flies would lay eggs in their corpses.”

“And if it’s not me, it’s someone else. There are a million ways in which the body is stolen from us—debt and interest and data and labour and literal tissue and blood that can be harvested, and affective, sexual, and emotional energy. Capitalists, which clutch and pry and feed, dreaming up ways in which they can make your body not your own, and when the last drop of blood is exhausted they’ll have the audacity to bill you for it.”
― Sofia Ajram, Coup de Grâce

“My life has been incredibly good, I have people in it and happiness, and some days I feel resolute, but let’s be honest: if at its best it’s not enough, then what can save me?”
― Sofia Ajram, Coup de Grâce

“Funny, for all the elaborate worrying one can do,
Constructing worst-case successes and best-case disasters,
Playing chess against one's future self and imagining we can win when we're not even them yet”
― Exurb1a, Poems for the Lost Because I'm Lost Too
