Just missed by a horde. Black juices rippling away as I step out of the culvert to assess the gains.
Your blemished foot fits all my gloves. Hardly unprecedented.
Treading on broken ankles my back shrinks, pulls, breaks. It shatters all over your legend.
Shades slosh over my lap.
I finally
understood
the message.
Through a series of stylized photographs of colorful flowers in a structure reminiscent of children's board books, Finally understood explores the end of a woman’s idealized world that hopefully announces the birth of a more nuanced colored reality. Photographs and poem by the author.
