"...to enclose the present moment; to make it stay; to fill it fuller and fuller, with the past, the present and the future, until it shone, whole, bright, deep with understanding."

Virgina Woolf, The Years

Alice's dress does not shrink




Mossy and thumping, bare of logic, red:
             why do they say your other head 

            and not and not your other heart?

The snack cakes of Smut Wonderland
turn Alice smaller than her dress. She stirs,
nude in the folds of so much baby blue.



Fragment of "Your Other Heart" by Natalie Shapero
