If her body is marble what is her heart? A sparkling perfect surface, inside, raw stone. On her face, the smile of a cold blood in the midday sun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Though you snap off daisy heads and shatter grass blades to the ground, she doesn\u2019t feel your approach. And with dignity, she bears a dazzling halo, by your view imposed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why do her heels bleed if her body is marble? Smooth stone is rough-weather skin. And soft curves, until you soothe, or strike. Spitting heels, and she stays stuck. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
She. The object reflecting your desires. There it stands between the roses, in her untouched garden, her voiceless battlefield rooted in a classic myth.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do you follow the hiss and her bleeding trail? Definition blurred by boldness. With your sword behind your back, prepared for a gutless attack, humming a song of honor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When your blade splits against her chest equal halves of broken iron join lost fortune coins. Disappear searching for her heart in the basin, the void.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If she is hollow, would you make her a heart? Carefully carve out her curves, so much less than she deserves. You against the marble and a thousand coiling bodies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Metal screeching scratches, breathing marble dust. Until you hold it in your hands \u2013 her heart. Her body sparkling at the bottom of the fountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
