I’ve become an old lady
washing the universe,
oblivious to ensuing chaos
after the machine has begun to spin.
I’m spinning too, in my seat,
with uneven breaths and far-flung dreams
that look like heaven
and smell like soap.
I’ve become what I’ve become
and there’s no taking back
a single sinking/rising moment
before skin changed shape
and dark things began to grow on the mind.
A little daydreaming
makes for fantastic spot remover.
