where the wild flowers grow

Extract the skeleton,
my bones are creeping.

I step up to the microphone,
heavy my voice in a deep tone.
Melted mascara, the
flesh burns
and the eye heaves a sigh.

Long before sight,
there were clairvoyant fields.
A charlatan psychic,
she tells of the vertebrae..

And how I've come
to break.

I think everyone has a few chips and missing pieces,  some people just hold it together better than others.

I enjoy your poetry very much Kaoru~

That's the image of me too speaking into a microphone!

I enjoy your dichotomous way of writing--simplistic, yet complicated! Your poems are always an interesting read!

Warm hugs,
EA
