Pearls~A Poem by NoneOfYourBusiness akaKITTY KUTABAREakaCandyPoleIn between a wave and the shore my pearls scattered at the bow of your boat and there you scooped me up didn't miss a single letter of my shattered moon you took my siren song with a kiss while Johnny Cash dreamed dusky notes through the spray catching leaping fish on his baritone sorrow
For you I became a woman pearls in my hair my legs uncertain in the shallows my ice floe gown traded for lace and satin my scales decorating a seagull's throat in the sky while the frost built roses for my trail to your life . . . .
. . . .life is precarious and in a way I have comfort the feel of your dying against my breasts a memory tattoo that curves me into an arc around the agony of the hollow bride but I have these pearls of me you collected and saved; so to the bottom of the sea I will trail you on the strand of oyster shells and add my tears to the sea
