11/27/11 by Meghan HelmichI've been bracing myself for the blow
from your forgiving hands,
dreaming of the bruises you will leave and
the constellations I will make of them
with only the finest of felt-tipped pens
so that you can look back from your perch
to find Andromeda is still purple and swollen. 11/29/2011 Author's Note: The chained maiden.
