orthodoxA Poem by sea lily
compress me so subtly
the smooth walls that cage me your strong arms condense me, slowly closing in on my identity sometimes, i have a name. shut off any higher meaning until i act your part perfectly. they praise me; i dance so well for all this breathing space. which returns in hot clouds to blind me and cease me like chloroform. the walls tightening. i used to like small spaces now i'm learning my lines. © 2008 sea lily |
