her mind
wove assorted ornaments
of vivid hues
each stitch
an alternate reality
a story she wished she knew
her view,
a distant spectacle--
a casual onlooker
upon the lovely scene
emotions spin
making its own ball of yarn
a tight knot forms
she is
her own
great nightmare
distorted reflections
grimace in horror
her own doing
a black sea
bubbles and gurgles
liquifying sensual sins
beauty hides
the facade
of her own madness
(b.d.s.)

her mind
wove assorted ornaments
of vivid hues
each stitch
an alternate reality
a story she wished she knew
her view,
a distant spectacle--
a casual onlooker
upon the lovely scene
emotions spin
making its own ball of yarn
a tight knot forms
she is
her own
great nightmare
distorted reflections
grimace in horror
her own doing
a black sea
bubbles and gurgles
liquifying sensual sins
beauty hides
the facade
of her own madness
