WHERE WE ARE HEADED

100 poems inspired by and based on "La Sylphide", written in 30 days, give or take.
longitudinally: (all the time)
[personal profile] longitudinally
no one will remember us
in a later time

I will be thin
air and currents
that constantly change

I will be gone

while you
will be a cautionary tale:
don’t run
into the woods


it’s where you lose
your mind at best
and your life
at worst

to that I can attest

though I suppose
if we are reborn
as warnings
of our past fates
we will at least
be born
interrelated

once more
longitudinally: (on a bed of leaves)
[personal profile] longitudinally
wondering
whether by desaturating herself
she could avoid capture
the winged thing picks pink petals and red leaves
out of her white skirts
green branches out of her obsidian hair
and makes herself
into grey shades
that augment her figure without
dyeing it

and so she stays
alive
until even the color
of blood in her veins
freezes over
