Kalon Soul
her kalon soul couldn’t thrive
until she burned herself alive
she would rise up
not from the ashes
whence she came
but rather
the smoke & flames
of mercy & shame
would billow hungrily
from her pyre
creating a life of poetry
& unhinged desire
reborn
a sacred mess
as
aΒ
Poetess
The Lotus of Me
She was
tired of hiding
her
heart
inside–
So out of the mire
she sprang forth in desire.
Passion
pulled her petals
o p e n
Her lotus
unfolded
seductively
revealing…
She was
l u m i n o u s
within.
