maybe last time

Flicking the time switch



Pain, cacophony, disorientation

the sensorium overwhelmed

body rebelling

discharges from orifices, etc.


Clearly, going back two days

to tell Jake where to stick it

was a luxury she couldn't yet afford,


but she was close, so close

to delivering the skewering words
when they counted most

and she had all the time in the world

to get it right.
