Trace bodies cold like steal and make a fire like lashes on a hill
because I once was a pharaoh a long time ago when liquid was fragile and supple were little girls
but I once took a look through my festering wounds and made for sea
mermaid girl laid round me with slippery echoes and murky seas
but shells never stay, shells always break
so I turned my fins to wings and made for land once more
where castles were built and royal brinks polished like glassy mazes of winding nowhere
and the lady bugs still visit and the cherub faces still breath
because I once was a pharaoh gone to a mermaid girl
but shells never say a word
I once was nondescript
but now im queen

It's easy to explain simple things so they seem to be complex...to explain complex things so they seem easy - that's the real challenge!

My Pink account :bulletblue: ~soninha-place :bulletblue:
this is so morbid it rocks :D
it feels like something that shouldve stepped out of the sandman comics or something... maybe one of the characters roaming around the dreamworld... a queen eating little people up!

Very cool indeed.

I love the fact that the queen seems to be eating all evidence of her past. Maybe she was once nondescript but by eating her subjects, no-one will ever know her humble beginings and her evolution from sea life to winged thing to queen will remain mythological.

Love the description and the photo really wotks in black and white, it seems to add to the mythology.
