Your hatred had a heart beat
Separated from your soul
A lifetime ago
Why eternally unknown
Pervasive pulse
Rampant rhythm
Powered by purity
Found in voiceless vulnerability
Negatives burned in my retina
Anchored acrimony
Breaching bloodstream
Contaminating
Parasite
Tainted tick
Last kiss
Last trick
Vampire bliss
Accrued courage
Hell-bent
Stained survivor
Walk under a ladder
Poisoned dagger
Obsolete dreams
Interrupted screams
Trashed chain letter
Teetering
On edge
Of the thirteenth ledge
Lucky coin
Tossed in a fountain
Ripple effect
The record skips
Nothing lasts forever
A venomous snake
Shedding the skin
You lived in
Séance
Silence
Flat line
Cleansed chaos
Exorcised evil
Turn around
Black cat
Broken mirror
Resurrected reflection
Resolute
Raven eyes
Rise

1Wise-Woman: “I am living, fighting, and thriving with mental illness and chronic disease and a need to express myself. Writing eases some of the weight I carry.” When she isn’t yanking shadowy strands of leathery clumps of unconscious, and tenderly placing them into word documents, she is creating at A Lion Sleeps in the Heart of the Brave.
Ba-bam!!! Excellent, Wise Woman. ❤
