009 – “you’re almost ugly”
(FRONT)You’re one of those people
who’s only pretty because you’re almost …
(INSIDE) you come so close to being
completely repulsive
that the sense of danger
in teetering on that brink
gives your look an excitement
that’s somehow attractive,
like if a butterfly had flapped
its wings somewhere the moment
you were born, everything might’ve been
different enough to make manifest
your face’s latent hideousness.
