Pulgarcita

Location

Pulgarcita: Thumbelina.

Living in the grass.

Inquires of the day to day,

yet no one seems to ask

about the way

she seemed to hurl

herself into the world.

 

Pulgarcita: Thumbelina

Living in the grass.

Shouting to those close to her,

her stories far too crass.

She laughs and hears the whir

of thoughts whipping in the wind.

They ask a chance to end

their lives so blackened with their sin.

 

Pulgarcita: Thumbelina.

Never seen at all.

Acts so brave, and tough, and mean

because she is so small.
