carry me deeply



a mirage
of stormy
weather

spirographed into
a girl
like me.


i am a twisty

contemporary bloom
like a water lily


& kiwi flesh
is the color of

my weedy, overgrown

mermaid curls.


tumble up the shore
clouded expression-
-ism

wades across my lips

an afternoon painted
with mushroom,

her body
unsaid;
lolling on
endless
sand
that aches for digging fingers.



Author notes

Mmm this is just some thoughts right now. Finished dancing and stretching and im feeling all that life drain away.
That little headache when you start to get sleepy, listening to "something new" by Jakalope.
& yeah just generally poofing out whatever is in my head. Washing into sleep I guess it is.

    I always love your poems... dunno why I've never really commented before. They've got this really dreamy, ethereal quality that makes you feel like you got sucked into a whole different, underwater world... I say underweater because your poems always make me think of the oceans, because you write about mermaids and things and all. Makes me think that your poetry is the kind of stuff that would be carved on the walls of Atlantis, if that makes any sense. Don't mind me, I'm rambling. So, yes, overall, I loved it. Sweet and simple and dream-like. Great.

    Painted with mushroom

    Anything endless is my kind of thing, but endless sand aching for digging fingers is fabulous above that.

    ahh I recognize your writing anywhere I think.
    it has this whole new dimension to it that only you can dig into. and it embraces nature with fantasy in a real way. I don't know how to describe it.. but yeah, nice write!
