“… and then there is this paranoid scab-picking of yours.
Your delusional mistrust
cradling fear
and nursing sabotage,
spinning nightmares into realities.

And it is not beautiful.

… and I pray that
I am too young and too lavender still
to tolerate it long”

me too. well, i did put up with it forever, but i’m free now.

in fact i hope to be that little old lady who doesn’t care at all that she’s wearing a lavander dress and azure… indigo shoes, hat, purse. i’d say bright fuchia, but that color just doesn’t appeal to me. ha! ha!

your images are enviable!! very lovely writing.
