Unearthing Sleeping Beauty~~A Poem by NoneOfYourBusiness akaKITTY KUTABAREakaCandyPoleI would be
the flower in the
cracked earth of your skin a parasol
of firefly fluorescence against the sun’s contrails
a lighthouse on a dry shore, weeping light for bones
scattered, a pentagram sea floor for Venus a garden of
coral host to a gypsy girl picking
scales out of an eel’s disharmony runes
tattooed on my eyelids “Don’t
close them!” the men cry Sometimes,
legends are best kept buried in old tomes brittle and
too dry to unfold But I will blink and every
flutter has been written to shake the world And when I
sleep I will be
the flower in the
cracked earth of your skin the rain
that forgot which way
to fall
