the occassional perfectionist

the day passed into tonight without notice
unseen the whole episode between the commute into the doors
and past them out into the cooling air

the day dimmed, and strangers wouldn't know why she cried
if they noticed the red eyes avereted but staring out
at the center of the public space between people on public transportation

noticed her pinky pink face, the tussock of redhead
it wasn't the unexpected rain or the strangers surrounding
everything normal was alright, it was the unkwown secret that was new and unsettling
