  Dec 2020 Medusa
Krista Delle Femine
Here we are
Bored with eachother
Frankly, I couldn't care less
About your day
And how it was a mess
I know you couldn't care less
About mine
Either
Because you never ask
You want to know things
Like where your boots are
Or what time is supper
But not where I learned
How to cook it
We got a tree full with fruits of
Conversations
Yet neither cares to shook it
Overripe fruit
Rotting on the limb
We sit here now
Our light has dimmed
No need for tears
Or blames or angryness
But frankly, however it goes down
It has to go down
Because I can't care any less

Sam Lawrence
How many moons did I really miss?
The big, the bright, the bold, the blue -
the daytime crescent
or a midnight swan?
Did I count them all
on my two hands?
Or was the same moon sat there
all along? Enticing and bewitching those
that dared to take the time away
from all the mundane earthly stuff;
the daily bluff, the soulless bleed.
What if every single moon was new?
And those that basked beneath
the moonshine never light
knew how it's luminosity,
shaped the eye.
If I chased it round the earth
would I see it slowly turn?
Or would I turn myself
to lunacy?
Medusa Dec 2020
Dreams of flying ladies drinking tea
They hold parasols, and glide about
Mocking me

Admiring their audacity
Earthbound, I stare jealously

Wait for my Self to wake
Sort it, shake it off

Or learn their tricks so
Assiduously

As flying I might see All
Differently

~÷~
Dreams of flight.
Medusa Dec 2020
April never did a thing to me yet
There is a mean month caught my
Fingers in a cold vise, because of
Memory and desire

Memory, desire, and you, always
Hit me in the dark days of Winter

You, yes you, so silent then
Now you wish to speak so
It's not in me to turn away

Sing to me.
Another true story. Time is relative.

Mikaela L
Despierto, duermo, despierto,
Un ciclo infinito,
Mis brazos enlazados,
Envueltos,
Mordidos por sábanas blancas,
Frazadas azules,
Mis propias piernas,
Soportan mi peso.

Boca abajo…
Duermo,
Me despierto,
Me arrepiento,
No conozco la razón,
Mucho menos el razonamiento terco,
Que me ha llevado a dormir en esta posición,
Protección,
Podría ser,
Pero ¿qué harán unos brazos débiles y unas piernas desnutridas?
Solo la muerte podría venir en defensa de un esqueleto.
