Edge of Darkness by Ben J

she keeps them, potential:

                    on a library shelf of what                     the inside of a heart                     should look like.                 (on a good day, when emotions                      can be ordered into genre next                      to ven-tric-les, and action is action                      is action-adventure.) trapped and boxed in the indigo-violet part of

                      the rainbow until someone presses                       play and they become, undeniably                       kinetic:

eyes like dead light, those old stars in slow-mo

                      or fast-forward, still assuredly same                       and safe, routine like sky-blue,                       grass-green. or, say, nine to five slog or tick-tock-tick-tock.

#yes; of course I want to see keira knightley in yet another period drama #you think you have to ask?
