Don't step on this--
not this life scene-
it is all just evidence...
Let me ribbon off the dream
sucking back into my fears
(swivel head in such pinache)
Ain't these tremorings a pain?

liquid blue
and stuttertwitch
of instinct--
love to violence--
shut the lights off
did you shoot?
watch the blood tell truth in glow....

the break of day
was chiseling
red bones through my eyes
held too tight
to recompense--
The Introduce of
"Ladies? Gents?"
"Meet Your Recluse!"
Lady K!
(nibbles in the dark on cheese...)

She takes the rhyme.
She feathers it.
Willy Wonkerish
she trips
and rolls again, onto her feet.
Trolls the market
for the bruise
of just one minute
after prime--
Taking laughter
for applause,
she curtsies
with no thing
to lose...

The Legendary Lady K
(got busted in the square today)
seems she bit a bitter plum
and spat it out before she paid.
Then they called her renegade
and sliced her grateful head from thought...

Well done, Serenity..:-)
Reminds me of a Anne Sexton poetry...a bit of mystery as the story opens and unfolds, falling into foggy reality at the end...fine work
