reminder

the wavering thinness of her sanity

rivaled murderers and

kidnappers and

politicians

reality for her

only came along

with a cup of

coffee

and

Xanax

without her reality

wounds

like scars and scabs and scratches

transformed into

ocean currents

waves of hysteria

she confused the coldness

for blistering heat

and would scream

about how her

skeleton

was prying away her memories of

him

the wavering thinness of her sanity

was a post-it note

at the back of her mind

secluded and sometimes forgotten

but always there

inscribed

"reminder
