dijice scapulas
-my pretty pale skin has always been smooth, no flaws. like freshly fallen snow on the lawn in
the winter time. the same winter that brought the thick sheet of ice over the water of my favorite
pond.
-you came with your freshly sharpened figure skates and danced across the ice, gliding and
leaping. the metal scraped my ice and left little white flakes of snow all around. you were having
the time of your life, practicing your routine, which we both know you will perfect. -but you
haven’t yet. i know this when your blades dig deep into my ice and when you fall hard over and
over again until my ice begins to be worn down and finally she cracked. she split into a million
pieces until the blood of water came rushing out. you couldn’t get blood on your new white
skates, so you scrambled to get up and back to the frosty grass. with relief you got up, gathered
your things, and went to find the next frozen over lake to practice on. -i have always felt for the
pond, so as your blades pierced her, you pierced me. you hurt me, irreversibly
