Showing Hearts
Jenica Lodde I feel like a tree in the wind, a sea fan, holding tight against the waves or like a jelly fish, ripped to shreds by the tides, my heart in someone else’s teeth. God is waiting in the backroom, but won’t speak, I’m a wisp of fleece, on a barbed wire and God is hanging back in the cold air. I’m two wings in a fish net, and my song is the only thing that breaks free and breathes. |
