Chrissy Wright – Inside these Windows


Chrissy Wright

Inside these Windows

haste creates
small ( cuts) like

gills in your skin,
lines that would convene

extra rays of tissue
on a film.  film.

ponytail on pillars
greet the portrait of

a snarling pop culture.
grin again & again

plastic grin-grimace.

get in line…
prod to be a part

of my labyrinth
while sour pipes & cinnamon

assault the brain.
