On One Knee

The girl called fierce by martyr friend,
pretty, I think
on: 'fierce' is sharp,
with a curl acidly appropriate
to the world, poured nicely
in the measuring cup of the world.

The word is more seen than read;
is missing signs like a gaptooth;
has friends and does things like
'being pretty', anyway. Do you

think I am too scrutable?
I am appealing to you.
