This is the way, she says, for girls
in white bathtubs with grey walls and hard
features
that cut the glass in half. The image is all
split, like visions
from an alternate timeline.
And a back is showing, and the beads
of water slide down
and disappear, prompting the viewer
to yell Wait/Don't go/Not yet.
The girl has gone away,
fading into the glow of a computer screen, trapped
in the frame of a site, of a picture
that we will share and stare at
for years.
