my fingers are wind -like and sewing themselves across you

by Wendy Geal

the stars have fallen out of their little sockets
crashing down like twisted rubble-wire and burnt black as night
my spiraling pain combusts with each spark
star-grieving and tastless
your lips trancing my scars, making them breed, star-rash
spreading all across the sky of me
twinkle-twinkling, little passion tales,
whispering wishes in my ears
my fingers are wind -like and sewing themselves across you
and skin, ever-warm and in love with your words
i am lying-- wept with sickness,
blasting them louder-loud inside my drunken head
waking up and out of each neurotic dream

This was just an association, came alive in your dream.But well, this can be part of the process of 'waking up and out of each neurotic dream'. Writing is.
