Melodic Runes~

Melodic Runes~

A Poem by NoneOfYourBusiness akaKITTY KUTABAREakaCandyPole

When I die

they will bend over my bones

press their identity against my white, silk skin

inlaid with rivulets of imploded arteries and runnels of unthreaded veins

somber blue, and ornate stygian

against the landscape of cherry blossoms

and butterflies

tattooed

over habituated moments, inside

someone else's irrationality;

and they will read the self-fulfilling, prophetic runes in the faceted uncertainty of each rib

in the fine grained  hip bones curved like wings, telling stories I'd never dare tell myself 

and as they slide their apical instruments between my thoracic curves

the moment will explode like gems from a god's creative spasm

and flood the arena of metal and and blood

and then, yes, then and only then

will they know that I didn't die of anorexia nervosa

though it may have been a symptom 

of that beautiful deformity they will find

embedded like a bundle of corral and sacral threads

which permitted me move like fluid, mercurial music exposing savage talent;

and though the crowd will say

"she starved herself inside her own myth"

a few will know, it wasn't that at all

Selene,

This is so beautifully sad, a wordletting of sorrow from the soul. I relate to you on so many levels that you don’t even know. It’s really sad how we walk through life and pass by people everyday and never look deeper than our shallow self-centeredness will allow. You reach through the world with your words, and I truly believe that you are making yourself heard.

You were a diamond in the rough, now sparkling, brilliant and bright.

how mysterious this lovely piece is......I myself have wondered about having my own bones looked at thousands of years from now (perhaps because I am fascinated with mummies) This is wonderful!

I can not imagine a world without you in it, the sun would be on a dimmer switch. Many times as I read this book, I skip this one on purpose, because to me, your are the epitome of immortality.

But, you will never truly die. Your writing will be around for future generations to salve their wounds & inspire them to new heights.

I doubt anyone will ever starve in your myth. You keep us quite satiated with writing like this.

We try to learn and conclude from science eyes to understand the soft fabric of life and death and with all our wisdom we will never understand the true nature of nature and human beings. Beauty within deaths grip how you view your self from outside of you it is truly stunning.
