Alabaster stones by Vikki OwensLet me reach to the night sky
through dank earth,
I will hold the stars between
dead fingers, moist with dew
and my alabaster stone
will make my headboard...
Let the dirt make my bed,
sleep in the silent
midnight
an easy breeze over my body
and the
hungry
worms... 11/06/2003 Posted on 11/07/2003 Copyright © 2025 Vikki Owens
