Strike the Record

I am in rough shape these days
edges fray
and the loose shape of my being shadow shape shifts

I am a lot of things
but mostly I see nothing inside
to hold

I want a kite
and a thunderstorm
and a new lipstick

but mostly
I want all of the people I've loved
even a little

to know that I remember
more than I forget
and that my voice may be broken

reflecting
holiday cheerfulness
