little miss queenofhearts,
playing dress-up with the clothes
she knows won't fit
around her (hallowed) dresden bones
sticking out from her hips
as her fingers trace the marks
gracefully, like a ballerina's last spin-
before she falls
onto the concrete and
bleeds out her
i m p e r f e c t i o n s
through her lips
-
and she thinks tomarrow
she'll start over (be smaller)
-
little miss queenofhearts--

-
she. wants. to. dance. on. water.
