sitting still

Sitting Still

without the minutes
ceaselessly attended
she lapses into
breaking, bumping, and falling
unpacking her long desire
harmful interactions
with bellicose strangers
mistreated kitten
a shifty worried happy
wide startled eyes
progress in dialogue
trying to pull it back
refuses to obey
laid down with the power
somebody dark and restless
they jostle each other
the visible person
someone you once knew
an uneven battle
slack empty beach
despair fueled explosion
every promise broken
real anger for the taking
a bluff speaks in high season
the hollow state
distracted by self
