A Good Little Girls Zine

June Blue

June Blue
June Green
June Kind
June June

I see you
you see me
and yet, we drag on
It's time
almost
to part ways 
with you

it echoes and echoes
the past 9 months
I hear it so loud
so loud, so loud--
even at night

the moments, those moments
of purity and truth

of paper yo-yos and laughter and groans and hyperboles
you ruled my days and weeks and months

June tired
June exhaustion
there's no cure
for you
June Bye's 
are filled with 
flashes--weighted 
so light and pure.

June green
June Yellow
June warm
June Blue

June June
June June
bye bye
dear June
