Multiple
by Franny Choi
the story isn’t
over til it’s over.
who wants a linear
resolution, claims of
happily ever after
while yr man leaves
you awake & itching
to be spent? i prefer
plot twists, cliff-
hangers un-
leashed, sublime
epilogues. spin
the tale from every
angle. read each
alternate ending
out loud. give me
the reviews, fan
fiction – there are
so many versions
of truth between
my body & its
exhaustion. tell it
so many times it
becomes cliché,
legend, til i’m flat
as an archetype,
til i’m over-
done & hollow
as a myth.
