Blue Siren
Jul 7, 2023
Mediterranean blue shock.
Azure sharp bobbed hair.
Fluorescent feathers
lackadaisically everywhere as if
to stare. Her mother’s pearls
On the weathered shell; “it’s not
just silver yet touched by
lavender and lilac in the air”
Mist of her mother declared. Almond eyes
clear-soothed. saudade whim,a wink to Cleopatra’s
accent flair. The essence of her
So darling fair? Said to be a siren
Odysseus’s memory never lost
ne’er to again hear. A prayer
sung by this virtuoso soprano
real slow… She put on a
rapturous astonishing
surreal show.
