Bree Aug 17
Length and lean
Tall and mean
Muscle and tone
Sigh and moan

Taught and clean
Bitter and gleam
Crush and bite
Timber and might

Holy and wrought
Rough and cough
Steady and calm
Dirt and charm

Man and soot
Man and foot
Farm and barn
Heat and brawn

Sleep and eat
Never obey
Stormy way
Hidden meat
Bree Aug 17
It can start with a pen
Then a cigarette
Then a film
Then a bowl
Then a rhyme
Then a time
Nap
Awake
Work
Wok
Food
Then a Vhs to calm the nerves
Then a hit
Then a cigarette
Then again

Ray
Sugar sprinkled
    across a licorice sky—
        the stars!

The more I understand man
and what he’s capable of…

the more I am convinced
the wolf was framed

and Little Red
wrote the story.

Interpretations are often shaped by those who survive to tell the tale. Sometimes, the villain is just the one without a voice.
