she hangs there
querulously without guts and ado
cowardly prying into the conversation of
sensitive new age guys, or girls even
they all look the same
sitting below her at the cold silvery café setting

s.n.a.g.s

her own reflection mocks her
she is flowerless
all pointy and spaced like dodgy teeth
her tendrils fall from the roots of her
soiled beginning
green and burnt-out with growing

sighing

her breath is like a dilapidated breeze
and tries to comb through their
carefully structured gelatinous

maiden hair


The clouds never expect it when it rains, but the sea, changes colour, but the sea, does not change.

this describes a world outside my own, and yet, interestingly enough, I kind of "get it".  Interesting read, and yes, I too mean that in a good way.
