Unforming - Katie Dey

When will you find where your heart is?

Buried and limp in the forest

Used as a prop by a larper

Under a slide at a park

An LED light in the dark

Helping a boy save a princess

Top left dissected in triplicate

Powering Mario’s cart

She won’t get better

If you don’t let her

Every invisible bravery

All my embarrassments haunt me

The first to go in my unforming

Disintegrated by morning

I’m not grateful for my mistakes

They had their time and their place

Their usefulness has been erased

Gone with the lines on my face

I move by leveling buildings

I live by flattening space

My love has a shattering weight

Infinity sealed my fate

You won’t get better

If she don’t let you

She won’t get better

If you don’t let her
