does this work on my own face
like
I can remember other people
but I can't remember myself
and this means
looking in the mirror
is always a bit of a shock
because
I can't imagine that girl
unable to talk
or
like
ever being
unable to stand alone in the street
without her hands holding onto
something safe
inside her pockets

Monday 7 November 2016
like listening
to other people
live their lives
through country-thick walls
and all I feel
is a silence
because
I can't remember
how the words go
and they keep
stacking up the bricks
between us.
