Contagion

You were fully aware

that it is contagious.

Yet,

you pointed that yawn

right at me.

Translation

 

 

Can I get a translation?

Interpretation??

I don’t happen to speak

your particular brand of crazy.

What peace?

Peace is porcelain

Drenched in perfumed poetry

How can it be anything else but prisoner of this poisonous world?

She is the calm

She is the storm

She is the dawning of each new day

She is beauty

She is nature

Love your mother

Armor

Even with all of this armor

I feel scantily clad

Exposed &

Vulnerable

Do teardrops

Left unwept

Still equate to weakness?

stray tendrils

of mostly forgotten dreams

tease and tickle

at the edge of my memory
