Dec 2015
Her eyes are like a bowl of cereal:
swirled with sweetness, soft but cold.
She lays in the center of a cobblestone intersection,
as tires bounce like knuckles off of teeth.
And ruby ribbons run from her mouth,
heading down the street that breathes south.
The sky above her stretches like notes from a guitar,
spitting acid rain tunes that'll turn intoΒ the pitter patter of a musical monsoon,
washing her body away from my sight and yours,
cleansed from our memories and the city floors.
