New Appartment!AAANNNYYYYWAY, I have time on my hands until I start my new job in a week and I am DETERMINED to finish the next installment of Bethany which is way, way, overdue. I need to get these fingers working and actually write something other than poetry.

EuryaleTimes like these are always nerve-racking. Waiting for the phone to ring knowing the small-talk will be stilted and painfully nervous – filled with pauses and shy coughs of laughter. ‘Vivacious crazy-haired girl seeks M GSOH for nights out and walks in the country. Herpetologists need not call’.Euryale
It was the crazy-haired part that had caught my attention. Nights out and walks in the country are simply garden-variety clichés for these ads. I bet she didn’t even own a pair of walking-shoes. As for the herpetologists - well, I would just have to ask. But hair - hair can say a lot about a girl

Serpentyour venom will not harm me, serpent your coils will not compress, expel my breath or crush my bones to chalkSerpent
your forked tongue will not beguile me snake's syrup hiding hidden barbs you will not surprise me from the dark, your coal-sleek, shadow-sheathed self slipping sideways, to and fro -
your ivory fangs an unwished for ectothermic kiss to endothermic epidermis
because, reptile,
I will find you. will track your brass scales like the thrush tracks snails the vixen tracks the fowl,

MetamorphosisMetamorphosisMetamorphosis
skin as fresh as an egg she wanders the gardens like a blind goose here and there bouncing from flower-bed to shrub bright eyes drinking colour
unbound but petite, her feet crunch gravel to life and bees buzz in her wake, striped bridesmaids carrying an invisible train
crossing through gates of green green hedge our nymph's eyes are held by marble - white-weathered and grey veined he stands impassive, impressive
a gasp catches in her throat
like a swallow in raptor's claws and fingers kiss the contours &nb

The story behind the painting I drew is already told. No more tear stains on the pages of my diary.
