I never feel more pretty than
When I stand, slightly swaying
With ***** in my veins
Diffusing
Swollen lips
And beaded with sweat
Waiting for the train.

Cold outside.
Lone dog
wanders over, sniffing
the patch of ground with grass slightly lighter
than the grass around it.
This is the hole we’d fall into as children,
patched and weathered over long since.

**** and *** and
smeared fire truck red lipstick have been
the bass notes
(the leaden circles dissolving in air)
of these past few lifetimes.
