FULL MOON ON TOP OF A CHAMPAGNE PALM'S TIP

if it is the edited
version of my life that
you love,

i may go back again
to the old self,
unadulterated.

it is my most lovable
self,

spotted cow,
stained glass,
the mirror
about to break
but still intact
against the
wind,

it was most tested
stone heart
steel mind
wooden body.
