Like large camels from her tongue
Smoke snaked around
And into
Our hair
And while I hugged her
She shook
It is a hard thing to be swept up by a man
To be willing to change your shape to make him more yours
This man
raw and violent
Soft and destroyed
All in the same room
The smell of his alcohol
His hands
Bringing back all of the memories
That took her childhood and broke her into the hummingbird
We know her to be
__a hummingbird is dainty but no one knows she can put a mountain in a sea if she put her mind to it
