Capsized

She had a vision when she was fifteen.
Things were revealed.
Capsized in dreams.
Drifting through the shadows,
humming faded songs.
Cheek bones defined
by a desire to belong.
Trixie had a vision when she was fifteen.
Things were revealed.
Capsized in dreams.
From out of obscurity
came her foxy prince.
To carry her over moonbeams
introducing her to the stars.
Blameless and blessed
on the breath of the night.
Over the horizon
the serenade took flight.
She had a vision at the age of fifteen.
Things were revealed.
Capsized in dreams.
Peering out of the darkness,
into the spaces.
The spaces in all.
In this deconstructed castle
Zion broke through flesh.
She was one with the clouds.
With birth came death.
She had a vision when she was fifteen.
Things were revealed.
Capsized in dreams.
