hungry fire… young woman
hungry fire
quiet mist
dangerous goddess
come heave elaborate words
to a young woman
stabbed beauty
playing a game of fright
sick of the storm
running across the sea

you watch me from your window
forgetting I am smoke
whose embers
still burn
all that touch
my image
can you see the change
and want the same space
