The face
emaciated
expands arc
lips
up
view
front
and inward.
Retouching
happiness
has been flaking
and fallen.
A tied
arm
dresses
black and white
is all that survives
of their indissoluble union.
Image of an image,
accumulated dust
the disguise of a life
he never belonged.
Carnival
witch
hidden in the dark
masks and blindfolds
have flown
another time.
Friends
embraced
with glasses
in handsfree
share held
the only space
now joins them.
