48) Hair

My hair is free

She is an open statement

Reeling on and on

Punctuated by none

But wildflowers.


My hair is free

She is a laughing child

Uncared for

And uncaring.


My hair is free

She walts with the wind

She tangoes with the sun

She fights with rioty flowers by her side

She is eternally explosive.


My hair is free

She is light

Light is she

Together, mingling


My hair is free

No established fonts

Type her story

She is an evolving parchment

Of golden calligraphy.


My hair is free

She is a dragon

A soul of its own breathing fire

Setting off a chain explosion of

The proudest neon

Wherever she goes.


My hair is free

She is a river of ink

That boldly,

Fearlessly,

Aggressively

Stains all sheet-thin delicacies

That came to stand by her side

Seeping into them a bottomless depth.


My hair is free

She bites into the wind

She breaks into the sun

She barges into the rain

She is the ultimate invader.


My hair is free

She likes to dance

To the gurgling melodies

In the IV pipe

To the clatter of steel

And to the babies' first songs

Jingling out from the next ward.


My hair is free

She continues

Uninterrupted

She occupies an interval

Of non-interference

Zero-tolerance

For interferers.
