perhaps she was a girl once. perhaps, indeed. sometimes she remembers, if only in a vague dream. sometimes if only through the warm taste of cognac on her tongue. there was a girl, but then there was not. maybe there’s more, if only she remembered. more about the blue of her hair—before it became platinum—and feet squelching through the bayou. more about the freckled girl she kissed that autumn, or the spring that her mother tied a leather braid to her wrist “for protection”. but, there isn’t more, and she doesn’t remember.

you were rust mouthed, heart aching—a loneliness that bore itself along cement and asphalt. you were sleeping in whiteness, asphyxiating behind pillars of carbon and smog. at night: the moon tossed memories at your sleeping body. but you let them fall next to you, quiet as her muffled breaths against your back. you woke in dimness, in starkness, in hypocrisy. there were winters that your lips would crack painfully, your fingers and hands covered in calluses. they told you, “be faithful”. they told you, staining your body with rouge to hide the crackling skin. you were a defiance, borne through grief and the taste of alloy. you will not corrode.
