.
I am out here studying stones
Trying to learn to be less alive
Using all of my will
To keep very still
Still even on the inside

There's never been an endeavor so strange
As trying to slow the blood in my veins
To keep my face blank
As a stone that just sank
Until not a ripple remains

It's a skill I'd hoped to abandon
When I got out on the open road
But any more pent up emotion
And I think I'm gonna explode

the concept for this photo was brought about as part of a zine i am working on with a good friend on self injury.

models: my arm is on the left,...
photo: technically this photograph was taken by Victor Heng (~Tay0001 ) as it's very difficult to get a picture of your own arm at this angle. i hope he doesn't mind that i'm putting it up in my gallery, because i really do consider it a work of mine, though he hit the button. but a shout out to Victor, with the mad photo skillz.

nope, only the one on the left is.
the arm is nameless, unless i get a specific go ahead for posting on DA.
