She is
a feral tautness
beneath your calloused hand,
ready to snap
like a piece of barbed wire
stretched past
it’s limit
or a starving woman
who’s been eating
from a bowlful
of shadows.
You can say nothing
that will soothe her.
She would rather
set her hair on fire
than listen to more
of your lies.
