#1774 (#057)

tittupy in speech

move back much more than forwards

the extrovert gone

#1773 (#056)

plackless wandering

only looking and dreaming

and exercising

#1772

does “glam-ma” dismiss

a lot of her life? because

she’s always been glam.

#1771 (#055)

“glam-ma” dismisses

so much of her life because

she’s always been glam

#1770 (#054)

go incognito

do what they don't want you to

with drag king freedom

#1769 (#053)

rising from the bed

all cocklety in my legs

which are still waking

#1768

sleep failed silence breath

“i don’t want you to see this”

a glimpse empty trapped
