striking stare
that cuts divinity
into ungodly horror.
teeth take shawl in between
and bite for respite
from the wicked, harsh
and inhumane confusion
she knows not her power
wrapped up in history
silent in the corner
quietly waging beauty
in homely wartime
imagine her simple voice
deafening beholders to war cries
Girl of East
knows what she shouldn't
fear all too closely
penned in secret calligraphy
in the depths of each eye
bearing witness to chaos
in melancholic beauty
made all the more tragic
knowing she could be so many
