Heart sits waiting
at empty table
Heart reads book
Heart checks phone
Heart draws a
squiggly smudgy heart.

Heart takes off watch
puts it in bag
turns off phone
Heart draws cartoon girl
around smudgy
squiggly heart.

Heart observes other hearts
Heart observes
other hearts do
not bleed like
this heart does.

Heart sees the blood
pool at other hearts’ feet
Heart sees Heart’s whole table
is covered in blood.

Heart draws a clock
Heart erases clock
Heart draws cartoon boy
Heart erases cartoon
boy Heart
draws cartoon
boy.

Cartoon girl sits
in a pool of blood
at cartoon boy’s
feet.
