Do it
Do it now
Time is ripe
Lexis was whirling
Urgency twirled her mind
Trembling sticky fingers
Sweat itching pale skin
Heartbeat threatening
Despite her good manners
They made her invincible
Always ignored
Colorless
But finally today
She was going to do it
The reality ragged her breath
Hardened by stiff gulps of salty air
Sharp needles of the sun
Caused cold but silent sobs
The sky appeared pale and grey
The late afternoon glow centered her
She was armed
Body and spirit
Hid it in her tongue
Careless, honest and ready
Today she had a chance
To be a colorful hum
A full entity
Visible
