The Wind Woman ~ Ginny Li

:named after the Chinese word 疯 which means crazy, it can be dissected into two letters: wind and illness.  

The walking dreamer lied  

The tulip stuck its tongue out  

Goat’s lair in form of ridicule  

Her grassy root of distinct springs  

She listens to the fortunes of others  

And stayed by their ears  

Sleepless sound wavering its nail  

Celadon her forehead  

Tastes of iron and pink  

If she could still dream  

And salivate  

And spit out the core of a fleshy pool of waves 

Instead of only licking it smooth and pining it with sandpaper 

She stopped  

make an artificial gleam out of something  

Balmy  

Rough  

Something akin to unwordable paint
