your little voice
over the wires came leaping
and i felt suddenly
dizzy
with the jostling and shouting of merry flowers
wee skipping high-heeled flames
courtesied before my eyes
or twinkling over to my side
looked up
with impertinently exquisite faces
floating hands were laid upon me
i was whirled and tossed into delicious dancing
up
up
with the pale important
stars and the humorous
moon
dear girl
how i was crazy how i cried when i heard
over time
and tide and death
leaping
sweetly
your voice
e. e. cummings
my name is lia marie and i drown in poetry and words. romanticizing death is my biggest fault and sometimes i draw my lungs in black. i possess a dress that has a dandelion pattern and it reminds me of a nightgown i liked to wear when i was little.
