Eris - Goddess of Chaos 11" x 14" acrylic on canvas panel
~
Soothing still,
these bedtime stories
that linger in the morning,
easy lies smothering the repercussions
from wearing masks of polite niceties
over internal lives carved from hatred
In the afternoon,
We talk in small circles
around elephant truths
full of silken secrets
buried in silence between sentences
as we drink our wine
And how We suffer
in the openness of the evening
when our naked sentiments
stumble drunkenly in for dinner,
whispering with honesty
that even saints can sin.
