We pull hair from your doll
like weeds from sidewalk cracks.
Our Malibu dreams dried up.

Look, her fissures betray
her sink-drowning. Did we finally make
her plastic brains fall out?

We meant: Lather, Sing, Repeat, Play.
We wanted to shine like the gleaming spokes
of her pink Corvette.

I am as blonde as she. Unfettered,
she rolls her empty head off the table.
Lydia, what do we do now?
