Take one hurt,
not bigger than a daisy.
Let it flatten between
encyclopedia pages and
study irrelevant diseases
for seven years.
Cautious not to squash
any quivering grudges,
glue pretty feathers
around your precious.
Secure the creation onto
your chest with the fear of
cancer and ghosts of turtles.
Wistfully and alone dance in
the chance of rain.
