Her Period

Slipping velvetine, 
The childless mother upon me, 
Swayed like a winter tree. 

Moonshine, 
In no time, 
My head cooking in brine. 

Silken liar, 
Pants beating each other in the dryer, 
Grieving a fallen paper air flyer. 

Ironed massacre, 
I can't hear her, 
Stomach churn.

Inspired again by Plath's "Winter Plath" and The Doors song "Angels And Sailors" (2:30)
