i gave her the palest pink that i could find
hoping that it wouldn't stain too badly,
wouldn't mark her pale face with a

and go about our business? and a frantic wave
a hand held at arm's length, another
covering her face and a shriek, I'M PRETTY! I'M PRETTY!



she calls me meow meow because i have cats
