Wonder - Cloud Rat

Ceremonial sculpture

It never changes

A glowing Saturn light;

A piece of frosting dabbed on her nose

Two figurines standing too close

Memories of electric jolts;

A red-lined mirror with digits in lipstick

She’s looking back at herself

Large purple indents swoop just below the eye

Can’t stay asleep, it’s always running

My brain never shuts off

She picks up the broken piece delicately

Drives it in

Crucified on a telephone pole

Gemini star watching you
