Pixie Tree Forest
June 2, 2011
Powdered sugar icing on every leaf,
Sparkles like diamonds in the sun.
A bright green pillow of moss
Is covered in a pillowcase of frozen silk.
A stone house without a roof,
Spared from the fairies' glitter dust wrath.
A wolf with only one eye
Gazes forlornly towards the treetops from his lonely perch.
Hanged from the ground until she is dead,
A nymph's outer shell lies broken in the icy wind.
Pixie tree forest,
Watching over the shed hair clippings.
All of this is
Almost
Nothing.
