Lo Siento

Grey falls all over everything

except my party dress.  & even then

the whole galaxy is dusty,

& my hair.  Well.


I am just trying to sift.

Remember when I was a person.

Remember when.


I have been waiting to be

pretty again & to be friendly.  

Trees bend away.  

Books fly off the shelf.  I suck.


Let me tell you about the time

I was a person.  Do you know

any more than I do?  Snow, who cares.

I have seen a shark’s vagina.
