Levonorgestrel
Hesitantly
out the door
at the end
she unfolds a trap
destined for her belly
a place
still and quiet
no floor
just pink insulation
curling around
to support her
like the dream
she will never realize
A dream determined
to be faint and distant
abandoned here
over the years
missing
dreamt many times over
and yet hardly recognizable
