Wild Woman

Too much coffee too little sleep the day is pastel her memories deep

faded blue blinds tame her curious dreams put things in rows and numbers and screens

outside waits the desert and 40 degrees dingoes watch from the shade old realities fade new ones complete she feels delirious and rests on her knees

and then there appears part of herself la criatura Wild Woman Death Goddess La Que Sabe she cannot be framed is hard to be named and should not be blamed

pink forest intuition blindfolded amongst ferns and greens I am you and you are me your whispers are rhythmic you want to be seen with instincts so keen you deserve to be felt and held for you hold the song that’s been forgotten too long.

A blue face, forest intuition veiled in silk amongst ferns and greens I am you and you are me your whispers are rhythmic you want to be seen with instincts so keen you deserve to be felt and held for you hold the song that’s been forgotten too long.
