DEAD CODE: A REWRITING OF FLESH


I trace the scar’s neon script—
my palm reads glitched algorithms of skin.
Each ridge a broken subroutine,
a pulse that hacks the night. 

Under ultraviolet memory,
I debug the hollow between ribs:
skeletal syntax trembling
with unsent messages.

Flesh rewrites itself in secret,
a living cipher that bleeds
when I crack its code.

End of line.
