nose toes fingers

some tattered and worn around the edges. the weight disproportionate causing the soles to slant at great gradient, trek along a constant hillside side-stepping each maneuver. the other protruding into the air, an eruptive interruption. noises too much, not enough, stifled and crumbled cacophony

C is looking for treasures on the sidewalk
a leftover piece of candy wrapper maybe peanut and chocolate to release the endorphins and add some protein. the used butt smeared with everparty pink lipstick (maybeline, on sale, walgreens, $2.97)

flat ballet-like slippers, payless special losing the elastic connect so they gap upon stride. tennis new, a yearn for athleticism. tall pointy stilettos, pierce the heart with each lift/place - the eyes run up and down - just in their periphery, this is a professional environment.

kleenex cover them from time to time and then fall to the wayside - the trash cans filling - one cube to the next back again
a convivial, familial thing.
mine begins to itch, discomfort.

Trying on different forms, C is looking a zippered leather case, oiled well with intentions for each part - this would provide order purpose, a collection of thoughtfully displayed actions. oxygen only gives so much - it needs to be super powered, maybe an injection.

now, it's Friday and she's on to fingers - rings and polish, fake applications changing the length, extension - they march. she wants an orchestra: each section makes sound from the chest
the winds are the pinkies, reeds lifting and rising
the pointer, percussion each key - the word processing department keeps time.
middle and ring make up the strings, delicately filling space

she's holding on to sanity best possible, wood, percussion, violin, cello and the thumb conductor, opposable glory leading the troupe

toes and nose give instruction a melody or opera follow
