BioPoppies in July
Little poppies, little hell flames,
Do you do no harm?
You flicker. I cannot touch you.
I put my hands among the flames. Nothing burns.
And it exhausts me to watch you
Flickering like that, wrinkly and clear red, like the skin of a mouth.
A mouth just bloodied.
Little bloody skirts!
There are fumes that I cannot touch.
Where are your opiates, your nauseous capsules?
If I could bleed, or sleep!
If my mouth could marry a hurt like that!
Or your liquors seep to me, in this glass capsule,
Dulling and stilling.
But colorless. Colorless.
~Sylvia Plath
Most of the time I just write. I read lots of books, I'm scared of wasps/clowns/dolls and J.P Montoya. I like hanging out with friends and crying over the formula one results. I live in a magical land full of pirates and murder. I'm slightly odd, but in a good way. Last night I cried because there are no men like Hugh Grant. I guess that makes me tragic. I'm not as cynical as I make out.
