[Poem] Tissue Paper
2009-04-22 @ 10:50 p.m.
a world that has hardenedjagged
with cold, uncompromising text,
lacks the gossamer words
of wonder that spin
a realm
of pure possibility
and leaves the maiden wishing:
if this world
were more like tissue paper,
bright, transparent,
enveloping wondrous secrets
and treasures beyond our knowledge
I would spend less time
with my eyes closed
