i can't put my finger on it.
nor, do i want to.
because all of your life,
that parting has been shut.
a finger over it,
signalling silence.

soft.
and tired.
pinkish purplish.
moving in sound.

little lines have been drawn on by your creator.
i should let you know that it means you're dehydrated.
impromptu conversations weave through the open parting,
debating each brushstroke before it's cast.
the painting doesn't change too much either way,
but i suppose it adds up.

i'm sorry for not listening to you.
