snapshot
a child on a wall
untouched a touch shaky on narrowness
tugging through air between
herself and a bush
as if to bring them
herself and the bush –
closer to each other
unable to go that
far without stumbling
from the edginess
urging herself “Reach! Reach!”
turning towards people
and their beyond world
commands “Go away! All go!”
