Alice in Festival Land

by claire

bare thighs cling to one another
arms entangled to extend
an erect index fingers salute
and merge the faceless/nameless/ageless
as one ocean
limp in the swell, ebb and tide
of the backless/boneless/breathless
Depthless

mascara lashes eyes
black rabbit-hole pupils
hide behind sunglasses
empty

Alice, I know who I was when I got up this morning,
but I think I must have been changed several times since then.
