Turning Points Poem by Daffodil Decarie

Turning Points



Meet me between wound’s bruise
behind twigged truth, across
deceit’s terrain, beneath confusion
after the rain drops, beyond fiery
wry faces, false hope
.
There, you’ll see me put on dresses
casually wait in coat blue, stare
as if in awe, as seen in non-fiction
breaking great walls, barriers
no longer cause my wreckage
I understand, turning points
;
As a tangle, it can stand, crooked
as a snarl, just think of skin crisp
as a nag, just think how you walk through
labyrinth of hydra, sophia and hypatia.
