01. you don't have it in you

by Nanette Bellman

i'm a libra.
i can't make a decision to save my life.
you know this,
    yet you constantly insist on making me the definitive.
 
when my indecision begins to turn fatal,
you throw your punches,
and i snap in half and in half again.
the aftermath is silence
 
until you offer me another chance.
 
but i know better.
you wouldn't let me go hungry.
 
        you just remember today tomorrow,
        when you're lunchbox is empty.
