I am here
unending form
like ballet
without the grace
and pink
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
never your mother
slack legged
in spread delight
the familial disease
every generation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
locked
in viral circulation
thin hollowed metal
extracts
all the red
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
hours old
swift arson
her melted gray matter
dissolves
hopeless opinions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the days
of nightgowns
and
bunny slippers
never existed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I crumple up
love
and journal pages
for you
to the wastebasket
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
refusal
love
that never was
lingers
just past the blade
