she wept a pale face
except to digress
then confess her wish
that time be
just a bit smaller
and windows cleaner
they dissect her
for the lumps
that appear
inspect her woe
with legumes and
raised eyebrows
she didn't ask for
any of it and her
plate is too full
why do they say dew
cleanses when the fog
that carries it is
dirty
