Monthly Mix Curated Just for You<3
Time— By: Sybil
Three in the new morning,
Counting sheep- the earth out
From my window, scorched green
Her ceramic toys swathed
By newspaper, away.
The flies have begun to
Swarm the bananas on the counter.
They rub their hands together,
They dance their dance of flight and
Loops upon
My last gift to her.
Dear Diary…
