Retracting

Posted on November 22, 2021November 22, 2021 by Torrey

form filled space

into rings-

copperbound prophesies

one lost on midnight-tumbled streets

another clasped in hand still, unmarked

unbroken

but still sheared into scraps littering my carpet floor.

accoutrement ghosts

decorations for the dead things laying still in our hearts

proper burial is only awaiting the sunrise skyblossoming

perhaps

I will find my own worth in the waking world

this time,

doll
