bread and poetry

.......

in the burnt eaves
of her mind
midway on a
journey to

herself

she confesses
to stingy silence
breaking hearts of
tea-stained poets

eating

their tiny verses
their boldly
exposed veins

embossed
on crumbling

papery skin

writing ~

kiss
me

lash
me

so she takes

her
broken steps

trailing blood
back to

the
half-light
in her mind.
