855. LOVER GIRL

LOVER GIRL
You. You. You.
I've changed so many things
now, even the mirror won't let
me look. An escarpment of mind
over matter, I suppose. What difference
does anything make? Breakfast in the
breakfast nook isn't like lunch in a
luncheonette. I carved this ring from
soap, so be careful with it. Like the
stain of a kiss, it will eventually wash
away. Eagle at night. Owl in the morning.
Tramps like us, and we like tramps.
Gone without warning.
