Glaring Truth

April 28, 2017




Part I
Curiosity

There is more than one way
to skin a cat
as I discovered
in the flickering florescent 
formaldehyde soaked
sense of being
right
that there was never
anything wrong

But what is new
pussycat?
Sunny
sleeps
in the crib
while the baby
wears a collar
with a bell on it
so we can hear
her 
answer
what she wants to be
when she grows up

She cries out
until her voice
breaks
in the barren birches

their names
echoing
over the creaking
frozen
pond

There is more than one way
to break 
a girl's
heart





Day 28
