take these ribbons
bind my hand
lest my finger
point to left
and tie my ankle
on the right
lest my foot
slip from the stone...
oh but this is travesty
to think that I was offered peace,
from the stream of slippery
and now I have not danced enough.

So sorry that I muddied stream.
just a toe's discrepancy--
blood and mud in weep of me
tomorrow, I'll perform the rites.
I'll burn the burdens
bundled blaze
ashes for my
Wed
ness
daze
oh I've been a bad, bad, girl...

Paint me sin and I'll repent.

gripping hair in my fingers--

curious--which Hell is this?

as the guilt trickles the stone...

a fountain of some recompense
I feel the tingling of wounds
where martyrs hold the dream intense
directions of the rosary
widdershins of ecstacy
Palms to sky in expose'
gladly weeping blood for God

oh tell me I'm a good girl now...

why can't you sleep?

Take the bells off?

LOL...

extremely good write, m'dear...read it earlier this morning, and have found that after a third read, I still don't have the words to comment appropriately, so I'll just say "thank you"...
