She hides her eyes
in folds of silk & sleeves of lace.
Her lips open and close
like a fish out of water,
she lies wasted on the shore.
Once she walked the earth,
a goddess in every respect
with mile-high heels
and glittering eyes.
But since the downfalling of the universe
she lies motionless on the beach,
afraid to move.
