Beautiful Mess




I drew poppies

With red O.P.I.

On the white window sill

And your messy hair

As you slept

Looked like crow's wings

Spread

Across impossible

Joyful

Fairy tales.

  3. I like to see things spread across impossible--makes it seem smaller. I almost have to go polish my nails now. (perfect 80's soundtrack as well.)

  10. The song rocked, can't figure out what/who it reminds me of, which makes me appreciate it even more. After Googling OPI red, thought the poem beautiful. Love the playfulness and optimistic tone.
