Broken pieces shattered, From the stained glass masterpiece we once were. The smallest piece resting where we owe our meeting, Hundreds of others wandering past.

The chair was plush against her rear as she sat. Its pillowed back soft along clenched muscles. Sinewy arms trail from an oblique chest, the mirror an offensive reminder of the doll on the other-side.   The reflection pictured cherry tainted cheeks marred by grooves of hilarity.
