Paper Mache Talk

She has dandelion hair
and when the wind blows
I already have my wish

All the clouds were crying
as stars fell from her dress
her roots grew bird houses for hollow skeletons,
shells to hold shells to hold promises made.

Her skin was polaroid 
tanned stained sepia toned
broken boned and dancing.

Empty quiver hunting trips
tangled in her own antlers
spider webs connecting dots 
of her scattered constellations.

Inside

Inside you

A melody
And if I press my ear
Against your chest
I can hear it sing
A sad song

A swan song
The final chorus
Of the angel inside you.
