barely there by Angela Thomasit is a very full moon, the tide is receding,
there is blood dripping between my legs,
something forgotten in the back of mind,
an ache. animals are especially clingy,
whispers seem to creep around me,
about me, and i'm hastily brushing
them off like flour on my hands. cosmic
collisions and calamity converging,
worlds hanging in the air with supernatural
bent. there is an energy or a premonition
or something unsettling. there is a fly
in the ointment. there is a hair on my
dinner. there is hangnail. a wet towel
on the bed. a pea under my mattress. 02/07/2012 Posted on 02/08/2012 Copyright © 2024 Angela Thomas
