A Good Little Girls Zine

scattered into
tiny 
bits and pieces
south
southwest
north
Northeast
hungry
to be glued
back together
they remain–
scattered

They try and try
holding on
with
the click, click, click
of each letter and piece
lighting only for fractions
tiny instants
dangling in between–
but in reality
they are scattered.
