A poem from Olivia:

Here I sit

My physical body dwells

On only thoughts,

Nothing else.

Stored on the shelf above,

My self-

Pretty as a dove.

I close my eyes to further think

About the disconnection,

So to speak.

All I hear is silence-

A seduction of quiet noise.

But before I fall beneath

I catch it-

My reflection staring back at me.

“Remember tomorrow, darling, to be sweet as a dove”. And then it’s back,

my flash sense of poise-

Like leprosy from above.

I quiet the tempting noise

And bear it all with a suitable grin.
