1) A woven heart

Woven heart,

Ruptured womb

Slowly decaying

The ground is dirty, and I want so badly to rub

The toil off my body

One eye eaten by a lichen,

And the other, still sympathising oneself....

Helen, I gazed into your universe,

Looking down at you and your ruptured womb

And it's contents slowly decaying,

Such a waste of the gift of God

You ate, you fattened, you rejoiced

And then you mistaking a lichen by a rose

Ran off into the deep greens, never to return

One year

Two year

Rain, summer, snow

The years toiled

And the threads tattered away


Helen, will you still be there

Huddled under a looming tree

Woving a heart?
