Breakthroughs

So I've worked on a poem about going to the movies for a long time. Nothing sounded great, it sounded cliché, and movie goers know why they love the movies and trying to describe it breaks the magic.

Yet, my breakthrough has to do with reading Dorothea Lasky's Milk, how it is vulnerable. "Floral Pattern"

I feel super needy today

The worst part of admitting this

Is that no one will care

This is the pattern I see

When I close my eyes too quickly. . .
