Shrinking
Sometimes I let myself shrink.
Sometimes it’s an accident.
I don’t feel myself contracting
Till I slip out of my clothes.
Sometimes it’s on purpose.
I feel the hollow, but ignore it,
Let it grow till its enormous,
Let it grow until I shrink.
The girl in the mirror is too tiny,
She won’t look me in the eyes.
