it just came to me

:: prev :: next ::


in
a
moment
of
sensible thinking
she
deleted
all
the
e-mail
-
brought
down
all
the
pictures
-
deleted
all
the
links
-
recanted
all
the
words
-
willed
herself
to
do
what her mind
had
told
her
was
right.

good girl.

but still
it
is
only a matter of time
-
for sooner
or
later
the band-aid will fall off,
the tape will tear lose,
the glue will give way,
and it will all
come
crashing
down
.
.
.
again.
