Frida Kahlo (Wikipedia) |
Frida Kahlo swims
in the ocean, a mermaid,
her hair braided into
a crown, festooned
with red hibiscus flowers
and pink sea shells,
her cheeks pale,
her brows like dark islands,
her eyes two midnight stars.
She swims
on the edge of my imagination.
Lighter than water,
lighter than air.
She floats
atop the calm, green waters,
Does she paint the sea?
Transform it
as she transformed herself?
Between the waves,
she dives into herself.
Only one red hibiscus remains,
floating and drifting out to the sea.
Beautiful, Beth. I particularly like: "Between the waves, she dives into herself." That is so Frida-ish. xoA

ReplyDeleteSay you're doing as well at Chemistry, and as you are doing at Maths Extension 2, then instead of splitting your study time equally between the two (just because they are both worth 2 units each), you should spend more time on Extension 2, simply because it scales higher. The most unique thing about Ouya is that it is said to be "open" -- although what this means is up for interpretation.

Lovely, Beth, as always. I, too, admire "Between the waves, she dives into herself." And on a somewhat related note, I re-read "The Mermaid's Quilt" a couple nights ago, such a fine story. It is among my top re-reads. Thank you for that.
