Bohemian Girl

To her

A hand designed to write

showing the reversed

ability

to brush the teeth

with scrutiny

spreading sprout

of evil will

that I’m the cause of every cataclysm

happened to you

and to those around you

daring to take care of your overgrown garden

in the worst-case scenario

of nursing your dirty violent ashes

and sprinkling them on your grey soil

where you’ve decided to make some improvements

on the status quo

established long ago

before you have laid your eyes

on these childless bare walls

learned to screw with look and lock

of your long limonite hair

identifying enemy

in me

ruthlessly

About the Creator

Mescaline Brisset

if it doesn't come bursting out of you

in spite of everything,

don't do it.

unless it comes unasked out of your

heart and your mind and your mouth

and your gut,

don't do it.

so you want to be a writer? – Charles Bukowski
