I Was My ImaginaryA Poem by Ivy
I was chained in a changeling body for some time. At day, I wrote
A-minus reverie essays and at night, I dripped from my petals and sang pollen from my eyes. I could hear them ringing behind "It's just a story, don't take it so seriously." Upon their foreign validation, bees lingered like molasses morning stiffness, but slowly scattered at the sound of footsteps. Heels tapped lightly on linoleum grass and fingers rapped on wood grain glass. Some mornings there was a deer by my bed. When I rose to pet it, it vanished. © 2011 Ivy |
