into the mirror
she alters perspective in order
to salvage some coherence

amidst the whirl
of myriad personas
anger is her 3rd rail

a dangerous electricity
inhabits her low back

afternoon reflects her outline
a suspect genealogy
someone of partial remembrance

a bony contour
a hand-me-down clock
the leotard her body danced

she exchanges herself
with time emerges partial
to her own integration
