Mortgage

Simplest joys untamed
Set flustered 'gainst broken window pane
(Dripping always dripping)
Rainbow kaleidescope and crazy quilt
Secrets unleased full hilt
Secrets yet unnamed

Stained glass bloody mother
Set content into empty pane
(Shining always shining)
Crimson cloth and holy white
Bleeding equestrian ride at night
Faith bought more than to smother

Boarded heavy earth and nail
Framing death from outside pain
(Whispering always whispering)
Crackly rasp and hint of rosemary
Was never but a door to protect me
Because this house, this soul
Is not for sale


"and Death i think is no paranthesis"-e.e. cummings

I thought the poem was ok, but the ending was the best part. You have VERY strong endings. I really liked it. Well done here.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

The ending part made it better, but in the beginning part, i couldn't seem to grasp what was being talked about.  Keep sharing.
