Ann is too old to marry herself
poetry [ ]

Ann would not swim flooded rivers anymore
or would not set free her inner prisoners
now she's obliged to kill them at the first shot
helped by the extraordinary oddity of the attack
whatever she does can't be very satisfactory
because the question she had expected did
not come and so she could not give the answer
she had prepared with a lot of impatience
life has powers of which nobody is sure and
she's too short to reach it like a train which is
too slow to be called an express
Ann knows her life is a shirt too dirty to wear
she's too poor to buy a large house
or this book is too difficult for her to read
she also knows she's too old to marry herself
those are simple truths from her peculiar life
the doors were never open for her except to air
so there was no reason for her to be alive but
she continued to fool her own death
Ann describes herself as being a big-boned
woman with facial hair and large features
but she's tall with big boobies and a nice face
- an unbounded belief in human doubt
she wants to be her own cat to see how
it feels to be excessively loved
a snake sleeping in the grass will bite if
there are any treads upon it
this is like an announcing letter and Ann
feels like a little snake carried into
a sluggish mirror just flecked by light strokes
now she's sitting by the window watching
two parents with their child returning home
