I'd Be Queen Of Myself (if I weren't anti-monarchy)
She said
I seemed brighter and
I was that day,
that week,
but my brightness
had a lid on it
because I couldn't let it
spill
unless I was alone and then
I could sing
and sing and sing
and grin
at the windows
and the cutlery
and laugh at the shape
of the front door
all angular and rigid
and trapped by lines
not like me
I was bright that day
