A Good Little Girls Zine

clarity, brief

little puffy clouds
large puffy clouds
pillows large and small

atop fences, cars, and tiny tree branches
white, kind, brief

white cotton blankets
carpets unroll
upon sidewalks, roads, lawns
gentle, silent, unending

the city is calm
silent and whole
not a question left in sight
not a fear lingering in the wind
just white, light, soft and brief
clarity comes only like this
