raze
so
little
leaks
into
this
room
now
.
i
never
knew
how
much
i
needed
it
until
it
was
gone
.
a
three
-hour casualty
of
inessential
tree
trimming.
i
shook
the
dregs
of
a
few
fractured
dreams
from
my
hair
,
the
dark
shape
of
my
face
in
the
bathroom
mirror
still
scarred
by
the
loss
of
all
the
night
saw
fit
to
strip
from
me
,
and
slipped
into
the
clothes
that
would
carry
me
through
the
day
.
i
found
what
i
needed
nearer
to
the
dirt
:
sun
seeping
in
between
the
blinds
of
a
worn window's
ever
-open
eye
.
drawing
what
warmth
i
could
from
the
star
the
world
whirls
around
,
i
fell
into
the
lithe
arms
of
morning
and
let
myself
be
held
until
i
felt
strong
enough
to
stand
under
my
own
steam.
