Inquire
Watching from the seam of the curtain,
or the crack in her own reflection.
She lies still in her blue gown,
pretending sleep will hide her.
But the air hums differently.
She rises — the room rearranged.
In the mirror, she finds not a watcher,
but a familiar face,
her own mouth plump.
Red replaces blue,
bright as a wound.
