I was walked in on taking a bath.He was more embarrassed than me.

the outline of the figure is partially filled with the shape of circles with protruding spikes... viruses. they are in lavender. The text in the caption is written in dark teal over the body, starting above the head and aligning "my brain" over the brain and "my blood" over the heart.

I was walked in on taking a bath.
He was more embarrassed than me.
My body
including
my brain
and

host uninvited guests
Biomarkers of viral persistence
or, as my Acupuncturist says, Possession.
Either way, my body is not longer feeling private
Let along mine to control.
