She's been fixed on
The drastic fall
The magnificent ease
Of unraveling
To this anxious episode

They see it coming
But she swore to surprise
& if she can't turn heads
By God, she'll turn her own
& in a few years the world
Will wonder why
They never looked past
Their curtains
So brushed with
Uncertainty


But they never did put
The warrant out
For the stars in her eyes
