Persephone Is Scratching

Euphoric and smiling days
The brightest colors in a breath
Woven together
with the cute and the crazed

Soaring wax and paper wings
Waiting for the icarus burn out
to take me
in his arms


I'm at my highest with this mania
swirling dervish
crazy laughs
crazy laughs


I can build to the face of this mania
And I can see them, feel them
I can finally understand their tongue
But my days in bed are calling to me


Persephone is scratching
Persephone is scratching
for another day above ground
Persephone is scratching
I hope
