FEATed

straddling the line
thread bare
between the
question,
THE question.
did i not accurately
express my desire
or did they simply
not care?
reflection holds the
burdening weight of
an answer she knows
to be true
but cannot face the
pain of being so
although
the picture is bigger
than a piece mangled
and missing,
still beautiful and complex
but not quite ever
complete
a feat

licking pavement

she wakes up
her days happen

to themselves

she is bored
but busy

like licking
pavement

it's almost futile

but then epiphany
or milestone
or moment of
sheer joy

melts away
the hardness

her lines soften
she is no longer
all held together

a whole
contstructed

an assembly of
many parts

seamless
