telltales unnoticed
she should not
have existed
not yet
the century
was still decades away
sometimes
she visited old bars
just to see
whether anyone
would notice
the light
at her neck
the precision
of her movements
the smoke
which occasionally
forgot
who was supposed
to be in control
nobody ever did
by midnight
she was usually
the only one
still amused

future tense
when she played
the future
sometimes felt
close enough to touch
the wailing of synths
the humming of machines
she was there
but the present gone
afterwards
she always wondered
had she been
away for real
or had it all
been memory?
a memory
born
from her violin
