there and back again

poetry, thoughts, book reviews, travelogue...


My name is Evelyn, and in addition to writing I enjoy painting and drawing. I specialize in portraiture, and you can find my work at elizavetarose.deviantart.com. Also, I’m kind of a dork. Find dork me at leclairage.tumblr.com...

Ode on a Coke Bottle

Your glowing amber body,

slashed by two red bands,

sweats onto my palm.

                   

If I peer down into you,

lit up by the sun,

there’s the ten-petaled flower of your feet.

          

I twist off your top,

your soul, sharp bubbles,

fountain down my throat.
