'she had tied herself into knots'

'the friendly reed guided her'

'from a choice of mortal or divine'

'but her opinion did not sway'

'eros can go fuck himself, she thought'

'ownership in full'

'her skills outsmarted her'

'her fingers eeked out shoots'

'laurel spread on her head-- a victorious crown'

'flowers for the rebirth, we are told

'the tension built'

'she lay trapped, alone'

'the heavens opened on her'

'not as easy as she thought'

'she sipped on sweet success'

'for it was all peachy'

'the golden rain licked her skin'

'her tears fell just as easily'

'nestled by the bush'

'she quite enjoyed the rain'

'for now it was ok'

'not the best she'd ever had'

'why the fuck not'

'from prophecy to bronze chamber'

'leave her to it (i)'

'not for lack of trying'

'no one but herself'

'like falling leaves'

'a laugh a minute'

'imprint in the deep undergrowth'

'with company'

'certain and settled'

'in the light VI'

'laying on the lake'

'come to me'

'her fleshy thoughts'

'a brush with flesh'

'as she lay the rain fell'

'and there she sat'

'the dark night'
