Minefield

poem by: Alice Inwonderland
Written on Jul 01, 2024 

My mind is a minefield.
Be careful where you step.
Tread gently, or you'll risk an explosion.
My mind is a clock.
Ever turning.
Be careful or you'll risk,
It'll stop.
My mind is a painting, scattered colour,
Be careful or you'll risk its smudging,
Bleeding paint, dripping from my eyes.
Prevent me from exploding, dab my painted tears, allow me to keep on ticking.
My mind is a minefield.
Tread carefully...
Please, lift me in your arms.
