A timebomb panacea Exploding into a thousand pieces Poison rain Drops slowly on my pillow

Time stops and extends its glass fragments What were you doing then So that you did not hear the blood run down the stairs A pocket of silence Surrounded by unwatching eyes Frozen stiff in their silver sockets It was a yellowback tragedy And it passed you by

I weave my way dancing into the beautiful blue Soft murmurs stirring in the nooks of my mind My trembling bones merge with the ice To form crystals which transcend the deep

Making potions in the bathroom A lemon scented witch in a world of white tiles Water seeps out and over the cracks Coming to stroke the tips of my toes

Floating in a bluebell reverie Days of the past that live on in the mind Whispered secrets attended only by the wind Trapped in a foxglove stupor Nightmares dredged from a murky pool long forgotten Sorry cries sucked up by the wind The demise of my sanity
