HELLO FACE IN A TINY MIRROR:

Finger smoothing skin between frantic calls. A name, a document
chased, unsigned. Languishing somewhere grey with the power to
liberate colour. Secrets of a deep bag marooned on the lap of a
tired woman sparking up the vista with fresh lippy. Zip & leather.
An alabaster face looks back across a shoulder, powder white,
longing for the sun. Distant eyes, a memory, a dream learning
French as a foreign language.
