dripping down
a little bit too much
over the edge
squirming out
uncomfortably

shapeless
formless
without a sense of what's right

i toss and turn
to make it disappear
please make it go away
...it's hurting me
to look at myself

tense
release
again
and again

hopefully it will work
and i don't have to frown
as soon as my shadow reflects
on the heated pavement

or the mirror throws
beige colored
oversized
drops of myself
in my face.

i don't even want to look around
the stares are killing me.
