[February 7th, 2014]

Excuse me collarbones,
but today I was distracted.

It was a boy,
an annoying boy,
yet in my state of anger I could forget about my flaws,
and just be.

I’d received relief
from the constant onslaught of questions -
what to eat,
when to exercise -
and instead replaced it with a curiosity,
so deep it burned through me like a flame would to paper,
except unlike the flame,
it cannot been extinguished.
