is it really a face?
underneath the water, in a dark place
little spots of color illuminate a face
is this really for us?
is the darkness giving way?
what do we lose if it goes?

a physical key is a word
that’s yelled in a wide open space.
in your head
you could be escaping a burning building with every belonging in tact
one of these four
the first was in danger. it kept trying to seem different from itself.
