habits
March 8, 2016
she is made of
bad habits-
consumed by that
captive beast
strumming sadness
into beat.
a suffering front
battlefield born
no longer steady
no longer solved
surge of relief
knowing a sudden
gleam of light-
striking.
she is made of crafted
worries
nail-bitten escape
routes
planted in soil
does not grow
will not grow
this cavity feeds
on itself
pouring into drought
