the grandfather clock strikes
midnight in one microscopic gesture

curling up on the bed with a worn book,
swift locks of golden hair belonging to—
a girl once invisible that now has a place in this world,
guitar stained with teardrops,
that is worn out by playing her song.
golden fireworks blazing from the sky—
