wears
a
shield
-
a
reminder
it
envies
that
apocalyptic
glow
showers
it
with
no
relief
it
coasts
even
in
the
dark
few
know
where
it
sheds
ashes
a
chirp,
and
she
laughs
stubborn
and
brazen
birds
cry
south
and
onto
the
bay
for
the
girl
who
hates
herself
under
everything
that's
beautiful
a
sunset
to
soak
under
the
moon
it
hides
around
her
