In a villa
outside of Paris
a curio collection
butterflies on pins
cannibals’ heads
trilobites

alone
in a mirrored room
a block of ice
is melting glacial

in the ice
a woman

not any woman
but …

The Most Beautiful Woman in the World.

naked
‘neath the silver rime
of millennial ice
eyes closed
waiting

drip
drip
drip

her eternal winter
gives way to spring
her eyes
will open

I
know
the colour
of those eyes.

A lovely dreamlike quality

This haunting poem really strikes me. I read it earlier - with no time to leave comments and it stayed with me all day. Lovely, Darkmaas.
