Medusa

Medusa

Snakes undulate right
Spider legs curl, scrabble left
Each morning anew


The other morning I woke up with parts of my hair in right angles
—literally the ends of my hair were pointing toward the ceiling. It was so bad that I fixed my hair before I put on my makeup. I don't know if that's ever happened before in my whole long-legged life. I wait for the moment when I no longer care if my hair causes other people to turn to stone.
