poem – Page 11 – Thistle Thoughts

I Used to Go to Screamo Shows

reminiscing on
eyeliner so thick
everyone will know
you’re crying

…Torn apart is an expression
Best kept hidden
Worn by worn down women…

Your body and mind go through a transitional phase in March.

…you & I remain inside
different body & mental,
physical & spiritual prisons…

where burning becomes
a state of being, & ashes
are the taste of comfort

…an invitation
to glimpse within

Today is my husband & I’s 7 year wedding anniversary.

I’m included in an anthology that is available for free today!

What of madness and
feminine energy?

My poor husband is in the hospital…
