Carried: Ulcerative Colitis (Lining-damaging inflammation of the large intestine) (II)

Affection is wanted acutely and blocked by a private penalty system: offences no one outside is aware of, tried and punished internally through the withholding of anything good. Conscientiousness runs far past its useful range here, taking responsibility for outcomes that were never anyone's to hold, and the moral accounting turns inward until it corrodes. The large intestine breaks down where what should have been released has been held and reworked instead. What the shape asks for is one of the charges examined out loud, where its size can be seen.

I'm serving a sentence for something nobody else knows I did, and I'm the one who wrote the charge.

Erysichthon, given a hunger that turned on its owner once nothing else was left to consume. The form implies a task: to stop the appetite for self-punishment before it becomes the only thing being fed.
