What The Ghost Of Riri Said To Me by tianshie(m): 4:22pm On Jun 10, 2006
She came at witching hour
her steps were far from mastered
my Riri.

It hurt my eyes
her cassava-whiteness
and i deepened my breath.
For a long time she just
stared,

And when i made to wake
she said to me
'Even stones have souls'
and with a sough of wings
climbed out of my dream

I woke up to her buckled corpse
under the mercedes

she had died in the night,
pneumonia.

Quite the thing for a single experience.It's rich in imagery;what's more,it's somewhat reluctant

to release its meaning.Good enough!
