Voodoo cursed
And jury tried
Condemned
For her humanity
Her lips sewn
With wooden vines
Cross stitched
Haphazardly through
Previous scars
And healing scabs
Keep those emotions
Those hard feelings
To yourself they said
As they sentenced them
Forever imprisoned
Inside a fleshy tomb
To rot and decay
Inside her fucked up brain

Wonderful poem and a creepy image to along with “the rot and decay” this poem talks about. The picture reminds me of a cover of the Handmaid’s Tale, by Margaret Atwood. Futuristic, dystopian crazy book but an excellent read! Also, if you’ve seen the children’s movie ‘Coraline,’ It makes me think of it as well.

I loved that movie. I find myself more at home with these words and images but I’m working on being more lighthearted 🙂

Bring me the feelings you try hard to hide
Bring me the poison sewn up deep inside
Bring me the torrents of tears yet uncried
And let me love you,
Anyway.

Intense – wanting to cut those stitches – free the voice – Its happening a lot lately that what I read in the blogs and on FB calls up a song or a poem, or even a play-list – I have to try to look up the lyrics for the one this exchange between you two (Hasty and Lizzi) calls up, just in case Lizzi can’t hear it in UK like that other one.

Hasty, My current blog is sort of related to yours and simply incandescent quanta. 🙂

Since today is International Women’s Day, this makes me think about all the women who were silenced for years, and some who still are. Love this!
