Bipolar


A leaf that cries through gossamer veins

Questioning curiosities of selves placed

By The Wise Tree

-Writing life lines

On blooms predetermined-

A tainted world tinges

Already delicate turns

Crippling edges of wilting petals

in a paralyzing resentment

 

But

 

In a past life-

An almost faithful grip

of life’s testimony

claimed the falling variety leaf in Khepri’s Plan

Transitioning

-presumably-

into a restful winter

with drying embers curling in hopes of tomorrow

Faeries, magick, enchantment, Tir Na Nog, Mother Earth, poetry, the stars, and wonder are all I need in life. Hey, I'm Salem. I'm just an average nobody trapped in forever cycles of hurt and repent. My mind mixes thought and reality ever so painfully which, in turn, creates the chaotic painting that is my life. Who said chaos couldn't be beautiful?
