Test Post - Self Portrait

A pop culture tattoo
graces her Achilles tendon

She cries when a good movie ends
or starts
or reaches a middle

She could wear a new scarf
around her face
every day for a month
and never have to repeat

She could be designated a historian
of Westeros
or Hogwarts
or Middle Earth

She has a penchant for long walks
in the dark
and can run for seven minutes straight
on flat land

She enjoys watching people’s faces fall
when they ask how she is
and she treats it like a real question

Have the pills and exercise helped?
they ask
a shrug is always her response.
