Porcelain and onyx, pour girl through her own skin, her
body a garden for stories, implant, take root, flower.They reach a world, across time, across
space. She walks a thousand stars to get to a place of origins, collecting
sticks and stones, breaking and rebuilding fluted bones, like a sparrow who
refused to be just a sparrow and decided instead to be a phoenix. She has met
the wolf on Okinawa, where the Irrita’s dressed her in tattoos, tiny pin points
of pain in thorns peppering the spiral culture of her complex dna. She has rolled
in fur and ale with Huns, climbed the tower for Rapunzel’s renowned pastries,
pulled her threads beyond herself and reworked the helixes a thousand times on
a bone loom. Molecules and pollen graft her purpose to the night, where, in ink
seduction she coaxes the last dreams into the folds of her silk gown. Porcelain
and onyx, doll under fine glass with a
wind up stick of silver in her sacred sacral nerves. My fingertips turn the
spindle on another world. I find my glaze inside the shine of a girl who’s been
kissed full of creation by a lonely god’s butterfly. God calls her, Book.She has many, many pages, waiting to be read
by the right fingertips that understand impressions better than the wisest man with
the greatest vision. Simplicity creates divinity, sometimes, if you know which
mitochondrial butterflies to kiss.
Everything you write is golden. Words, I think, come to you as easy as breathing. Another incredible writing that touches on every point of creation in your own unique, surreal way.

I do believe you thread majestical ribbons of gold and silver together and allow them to flutter away with freedom in wise and passionate emotions :) Ethereal glorious enchantment! xoxo
An incredible Book, made in the image of enchantment:You.

Selene Skye, where biology and sorcery are one and the same.
You're poetry, your prose, your stories, link the past, the present and the future in a complex and astonishing array, connecting everything together while constantly deconstructing the story of existence and recreating it one beautiful passage at a time. You're an incredible story teller, Selene, and you, obviously, knew which fluttering butterfly to kiss.

So many lines and images that i loved, especially 'pour girl through her own skin' suggesting something fluid and vital, 'She walks a thousand stars to get to a place of origins,' suggesting something very universal, tracing steps maybe to the beginnings of existence, to an appointed time, finding meaning on the way and then all the beauty and power of that last line, giving us a new angle to ponder and explore. incredible poetry.
A cauldron of images that makes me think of an extraordinary woman's role throughout the passage of time regardless of the context. I kept picturing a strong woman safe and secure in her backdrop used and using as necessary and unendingly beuatiful and necessary. What last line.
was i a man, i'd search for wings to flutter after reading the last line :).
on a more serious tone now, this journey of self-revealing is so cinematic and so filled with beauty that makes one want to turn page after page with a never-to-be-soothed thirst for your talent.
