blue velvet

✮⋆ An old ekphrastic challenge submission.

blue velvet

rip the pearl cord

and see for yourself:

we’re all barefoot here.

balancing acts

of radical whimsy;

harlequin heralds

poised atop a new world

order. haven’t you heard?

norman’s dead

the sun’s in ribbons

and we have a new dream

to dream.
