seemingly so,
(I sleep like a log)
that cross on my forehead-
a mark I acquired
when I fell down from the stars
but what of it?
I look like a fallen angel
with my gelled hair,
and unblinking stare
that air of haughtiness
you could never fathom my indomitable spirit
(just a fact I state)
"when I walk on the earth again,
I find bliss in my obscure state"
Love the language in this!
ReplyDeleteLove it!

ReplyDeleteFalling down the stars - that's some fall, a cross on her forehead. She is indomitable. Watch out! Interesting write.
