They found her dried up tears
at the beach
beneath the sand;
in a phone booth
where calls had taken place;
inside Cruelty's Eye;
at the edges of Sharp Words,
whirling in Mean-Spirited Space.
In the crevices of the Frowning Brow;
in the Back Hand;
in the tracks of her Child-Hood.
On the carpeted floors
where she had lain
face down.
But they didn't find her.
She was long gone;
traces of her smile
lingered though;
her things of lace
of her name Millicent
on her high school books.
He finally called
and she rose
on Rainbowed Air
tear by tear
fluttering high--
one by one
cleaned and cleansed
and placed
into new born
baby eyes.
