It's all good.


Show Me Your Cards

The black blots on white cards,
each one a new world of expression
followed by a monotone,
iiiiiii“So…
iiiiiiiWhat do YOU see
iiiiiiiin this one?”


I iiiiiiiiiiii stare, studying
a girl walking though
falling cherry blossoms.
Her shadow r
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiu
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin

iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin


iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin

iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig,
splotching the iridescent scene
with watery looks and pasted smiles,
as dyed-blue roses and baby’s breath
clip back ringlets. Her uneasy breathing
caught in the ribbon trailing off
a white, spring dress while bare feet bleed
from the orchard floor’s splinters.
A late thought topples her back;
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iihe

me.


The flash cards stop animating
my mind's movie, so my lips part
in a sigh as my sight drifts out to the windows.
“I see
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiinothing.”
