THANK YOU, Tess..for Magpie Tales...
ON THE MAP
You put me on the map
so to speak,
so good at sketching other's lives.
Lover, friend,
life partner,
I'm up to date.
Gave me form and figure,
colored me in with Crayolas,
but you went over the line,
let me bleed
into undisclosed territory.
Lucky me,
critics always ready to comment
with a saving grace.
Many salvaged me,
made me fit their hindsight.
I became a double doppelganger,
mirrors reflected an eternity of me,
but every karmic comeback
left room to be desired.
Still a babe
knocking at the door.
Just let me in.

Yes please somebody open the door, let her in. Right now, there are a tremendous amount of visions dancing through my thoughts, mapping my way. Ah yes, this is quite clever.
