Just another lonely box beneath her bed. A mark on her back a bruise in her head. Had she fallen, had she fallen? That is what she wished she had said. Two traces of time were riding the spine. Was it worth it?
Tread downtown ache/regret deepen long ruts dragged through filth. Panic's frantic, desperate and manic. The world's spinning sideways arcing low curves, faltering. Remaining upright only for the resistance.
