she has two holes in her face -
blind, only to the mirror
that hisses and cracks at the slightest turn.
he doesn't like her curves,
he'd rather sharp edges
[so he dashes all hope,
shaving deep on the outside].
she has two holes in her face -
only remnants of where
dreams used to kiss her eyelids
to gentle sleep.
