Balls

Balls by Lydia Shu

balls roll between her fingers
she squeezes squishy balls with her hands
she sucks at meat balls
her eyeballs roll in her head
back and up
left right and around
whizzing white balls of emptiness
and panic?
The balls of her feet keep her bouncing
bounce bounce bounce
she falls and rolls
like a ball
to the foot of the hill
bits of balls dislodged
she totters to her feet
steps onto one of her own white balls
slips
clutches at her empty ball of a head keels over and dies
