_____________________________________She drew three lines
On the porcelain vase
Per fec tion ist
The red lines
An inch apartThe faucet near her
Has been dripping for long
But the sink is an open drain
So let it bleed
For as long as it canThe scissors cut
Through her open lids
Scratching past her eyes
Roundabout
Up her skull
And down her neckHer fingers strangle the brush
The ripples strangle her
Butterflies all surround her
Wings caging her in
Cutting through her skinYet the faucet drips
A gaping open mouth
None to move its head
Towards windows soaked
In blue purple and red
