touch a leaf Date: Friday, 1st March 2013 @ 10:18:14 PM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: ming swish tea around the beginning of Fall what's so many letters and dreams in my teacup a purchase of reality doing nothing hides everything hands shaking quieter than mortality she might be dead stripped bare the rally-round replaced by better silence with windows open and a tongue numb who turns 3 times and mutters under sage smoke and forgets which world haunts true illusions rinsed down the sink in my blue dress cat slaps drips and I'm a wet dappled heathen of a kind sort. ming This poem is Copyright © ming Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
