Barefoot Goddess

You are fairy dust and Undulating dreams

Undulating tides,

Of evaporating water And dissipating grins.

You are suppressed fourth grade memories

And seasonal complains That remind you of

Entanglement And cherry chapstick kisses

All before winter fires

And augmented with Popping Burt’s Bee’s caps And shivering sparks.

You are an orchestra of Chiming bracelets, Pen clicks Crooning wind,

But most of all,

The slap of bare feet Against blacktop road.

You are a barefoot goddess;

You forsake shoes

And sleeves

And pants.

You are freedom on autumn nights

Until the hour demands That you return inside

And wash the blisters on your feet.

You are not freedom, But you are a dollar paid To cross the Elizabeth River

And pretend it’s something darker,

Something magical.

You are the mystery in the Mundane,

The enigma in Forgetfulness,

The levity of bones At three a.m.

When you’re too afraid To venture downstairs

In the dark.

You are Penelope,

Atalanta,

Unnamed stars And planets you named yourself.

You are bracelets digging Into my wrist, Jewelry –

In constant need Of physical contact.

You are numbness And phoenixes

Outlined in flame.
