Christina is an international studies major and economics minor, as well as the Poetry Editor for in medias res<\/em>. This particular piece is about an afterimage, seeing and being seen, and it leaving a bad taste in the mouth. However, she hopes this serves as a soft reminder (to you and herself) that over-intellectualizing and renaissance are not the remedies you think they are.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Untitled<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It eats at me like sun bleaching bone

My ragged heart and crooked spine
tired of being macerated by love.

A carnal recognition, verisimilitude, vision
of my own, of self \u2014
Aversion spreading within and without

My love was.
I am fresh and blood, incognizable, incorrigible.

Retaining in my retinas
the sun
the imprint of something once bold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
