She is Goosebumps part 2A Poem by LisaButterflyShe is a lifeforce and a horizontal line Lost between two shores A swish and a swirl Vitality and dance Closing chapters Opening doors She's finds goosebumps Her lifeline becomes a thousand right angles A whole not a half She is alive Through a tickle and a laugh She breathes And her breath is her warrior She cries at those who roll their eyes As they carve holes into her geometry And she becomes rage Erupting Leaving her breathless Blocking out the commentary As she searches for her core Raw clay that solid enough to be moulded and formed Awaiting to be sculptured Like Venus de Milo And the Mother Mary Dislocated and contorted Like the internal foundations of her home Precious ornaments within each room Serving platters and pomegranates Awkward silences The smell of her mother's warmth Something always cooking And reminders of her wrongs But home is neither here nor there She is a circle and a square Boring withdrawing She is surrender And she stands unprotected Afraid to let go of what she's holding on to Love A four letter word Of Endless happenings Old patterns New codes Break downs Awakenings And chestfilled supernovas Which explode within her Gifting her a graceful mess In her suffering and death She finds the treasure of life In her labyrinth She finds Belonging To the Divine Inviting shadows to be forgiven And broken winged birds can come and nest on new branches A place where neglect becomes a distant friend She imagines She will be a constellation A black hole A lifeforce A horizontal line In a gathering not alone she will sing To Truth And ask it to carry her With hope on one wing She will be Springtime and goosebumps © 2014 LisaButterfly |
