She opens up her head and takes out all her dolls and fantasies
lays them out across the unmade bed and feeds them scones and tea
from her little plastic tea set that her dad gave her for Christmas
she weighs a cup between thumb and forefinger against the blisters
and the treasured spot upon his lap
where he told her that he loved her
and introduced her to the strap
She opens up her womb and pushes out the fruit of all her pain
cradles it beneath a breast all I can give you is a name
sees another's hungry eyes in that little crinkled face
sees another man another room another time and place
another night spent on the bed
where he told her that he loved her
and he left her there for dead
