a sparkle in your eye a baby girl's cry how's she going to spend the rest of her life? reaching for perfection fixing her complexion and sense of direction dodging society's inspections her father's aggression her mother's traditional-housewife obsession trying to escape their suffocating protection became an adult run away across the country for a new angle of reflection trying to forget trying to have no recollection of their projections on her own perceptions learn who she is over and over again question question question she's spending time making connections between the past and the present
