If you haven't seen The Ring, this probably won't make sense.

Then again, it might.

Seven days
You pick flies off my mirror, child,
holding them by their wings in yours.
Swimming horses drown against stone walls.
You burn red-tipped trees in my hands.

Do you see the lid of the well?
Close me deep within your bones.
Oh, the succorless call to deny.
Let seven days dine their fill.

haven't seen the movie
though I want to

poems don't "need" to make "sense"
I enjoy them on subconcious levels
problably more than in Egoland

I love the visions in this
a small wisp of "Horse latitudes" bobbed
up
makes me want to see the movie
even more dammit
can I borrow 8 bucks, dude?

Thanks all. The poem was written to floor Lori, and on that level, it succeeded quite nicely. Glad to see you around these parts again, Devina. I hope to find the time to read some of your recent stuff soon...

Thanks again!

Mikey
