It Is Clear Now

Folder: 
Shorties

 

These hands,

swarm with grief

crumble like foundation 

we break down

our mouths exume faint sound 

I turn the radio off

 

across the street,

a young woman plays violin 

her hands know nothing of sighs

they do not hesitate or bend to memories 

and we

have some good ones

they crack,

like a smile that never

quite reaches the eyes

 

lie after lie after lie.
