Post It Notes

issue 29 September 2012

Self-adhesive suns

they glow
fluorescent
on grey monitors

wanting for a world
ess
misremembered.

Oh, how biddable!
Our paper
geisha girls,

dancing

in an open window
breeze, only

to die the deaths of
petals curling,
ips unpeeling

from a disappearing love.
