winter cloths hanging on a hook
darkness gloats flashes of fatima
against heartbroken mirrors
naming
Egyptian shamans, the mightiest of men
writing calligraphy across my achilles
like an encyclopedia, with magik expression
gutting my closed bedroom door
white flaked avalanches erasing
narrow, saw toothed clamoring storms
into candles that flicker heat waves
like an old friend, tender voiced

an underworld playing hide and seek
flooded, with kingdoms to rummage around
nursing transitions, fingerprints
Orion secrets,
unlocking ancient maps
dreams made of flesh with a
tiger eye mind
handfeeds coincidence, brilliant blue waters
imbuing realism, truth, placed in a pouch of flames
with chestnut colored hair…
in a midsummer apron with
aphrodite design
a paranormal suburban house
gives birth to a city child

Lee~

'truth, placed in a pouch of flames
with chestnut colored hair…
in a midsummer apron with
aphrodite design
a paranormal suburban house
gives birth to a city child'


You've unlocked some poignant, contemplative thoughts this morning~

Thank you~

A magical blend of the mystical past and present day suburbia.

Enjoy your day, poetess!
