Firesale

Firesale of a day,
mobile chain prevents a stray.
Pulling, sorting on the run;
null priority for fun.
Sane once, but now gone mad;
Invisibly, invincibly clad.

Lucky Enough

Be careful lounging in my garden,
hidden amongst peaches and petals
lie thorns and land mines.

Escalating awareness
escalated response.

Like a thief in the night
skulking and stealing my youth
because I was lucky enough.
Incubator versus turkey baster

and you want to know why
I've set traps?

Motivation

Arms that weigh a thousand pounds
with an extra load of dread;
butterfingers and all thumbs,
cobwebs in my head.

Simple task or mountain climb,
to me are both the same.
Procrastination, my old friend,
always bears the blame.

Dead Weight

False pedestal of invisible sand,
hourglass shape, dark, pale, or tanned.
Beyond predetermined aesthetic math,
sum of weaker parts equals wrath.

Bought, bargained, badgered like a toy.
Smart, strong, diluted to cute and coy.

Pacifier patches on a sinking boat
never cutting dead weight to keep afloat.

Join Us

Join this army of Queens and Empresses.
Ancient sisters with royal blood.
Join us in suffrage, spirit, and madness!

Join us as trophies,
invaluable in a system
that relies on your facade.
Join us as sirens,
owners of the night,
and shameless fantasy.
Join us as mothers,
vessels of life
thriving in pain.
Join us as scientists,
as geniuses,
as warriors,
and servants.

Join us and serve yourself.

Selfish, bitchy,
conniving, crazy.
Hot.
Fat.

Dangerous labels,
reserved for
dangerous enemies.

I Forgot

Pulling, nagging feeling,
peripheral shadow or
a spiderweb I did not see.
Tip of the tongue forgetful.
