Before



Before

 

She grabs handfuls of flesh

and wishes her palms empty,

 

She desires a time machine,

a meet cute with Michelangelo,

a plea to be chiseled into something worth seeing,

 

He finds her in front of the mirror,

grabs handfuls of her flesh,

declares it delicious,

 

he prays she find a Time Machine,

a chance forward to see the light,

 

he wishes her body to learn

her mind is not right
