and when she lost that
at least
she still could find
words that rhyme
sense to make
of blanks to fill
and long-stemmed roses
wrapped up in blankets
like lyrics
and lines without rhyme
all flowing freefalling
and dancing and shaking
the paint off the walls
all worked out
and perfect-like
fitting around her
a prom-dress a princess
a soft-leather
glove
and still
buzzing inside
and humming along
with the song still playing
on loop
in her head.
