Every stitch of her patchwork quilt like blood spread over the floor tells a story of no love and glory yet still she remembers the sun and the touch of passionate love washed and spun till coming undone by the throw of dastardly deeds. Life should have got the warning out before, long before, the coming of love on billboards and placards pasted and stuck from earth up to heaven above but - did it? Oh, no, she had to stitch lies into the weave of her heart and join the width of what she believes with the length of make-believe dreams to finally brand herself a fool ~ and everything hurts that burns belief and blisters the edges of faith. It’s not really and ever about energy that mixes and matches patterned and plain but a game for the spirits on rainy days; check mate, my friend, and you’re out. I still wish it could have been me to arise from the ashes a queen instead of a patchwork quilt undone by the demon of mystical dreams! Helen / 27 April 2006 |
