it is there
right in front of her
it is red and it is round
she stares at it and no
it isn’t staring back at here
she looks at it
with her hands on her back
trying to remember
trying to decide
making the right decision
there is no way back
if she decides to push
she knows she is aware
that it would stop all
but it would also end
she tries to bring her hand
forward toward the button
but she can’t remember
is she righthanded
or lefthanded
