Suicide Girls

Suicide Girls

The suicide girls are bitter

as mandrake roots

sunk into the earth

They show you their scars

small reverences

permanent bird tracks

in the soils, deserts

and snows of their skins

their glorious skins

Yank them into the sun

and they may scream

ungodly howl at you

Sit with them

in the dun earthen grave

these dear Persphones

and they will show you

their jewels

share their bone secrets

and grow slowly up

aching

to the light
