Calhoun Poetry Feb 2015
Let the stories you told yourself as a child,
the ones where you were the hero,
Deform
Like your pubescent body before the mirror
into stories where
you are the one who needs to be saved and
the only thing that really matters is
the color of your dress.
Based on the short story "Boys and Girls" by Alice Munro
