Ignominy of hope
 

An ignominy of hope

leaves her swathed

vacillating in linen

textured with the remains

of a bottled amethyst fancy

soiling another night spent alone

with regret and a torturous recurrence

of a injudicious revelation

concerning an intimate alien abduction

that would have been better off

left to wander the space

of her fragmented imagination

her flaccidity taking casual support

from matted tresses

that entangled her décolletage

like a fifties student scarf trying to

break up the ennui of fading corduroy

her eyes loud occupying a startled glare

of an imminent Sunday meal

in a headlight paralysis

she disposes of the evidence

in a state of semi consciousness

in order not to have to face

the reality of who she is

then makes herself a coffee

before the morning is broken
