by Michele McDannold
here is the paper that taught me things
she has ability
she has potential

and an ink that comes to my skin
it fades
like the night
I like to see it coming on the morning
slow
with a tired and wrung-out feeling
it gives way to a new tension
this is the unknown
and I can write this
any way
I want
