We
There, beneath the ice.
Frozen.
An unready meal, unfit for consumption.
A drowning dalek, malfunctioned.
All intellect, no gumption.
There, amongst the trees.
Falling.
Too eager to please,
all smiles and bended knees,
platitudes float by on breeze.
There, left in the rain.
Forgotten.
Torn head stitched back again -
a pale plaster-cast of pain.
Her mask descending down the drain.
There, amid the crowd.
Brazen.
Talking painfully too loud,
arrogance veils like a shroud,
inside, her head stays bowed.
There, across the street.
Timid.
Hoping that we meet,
shuffling feet on summer heat,
Her broken heart won't beat.
Here, an open road.
Curious.
A rerun or new episode?
Traffic slowed,
this time, we go.
