Red Dress



She wears a red dress often,
More or less, when her mind
Carries away the sun’s kind

The cloth is simple but hangs a dazzling
Display that covers her scar tissue
Tracing back each time life’s reissue

A long yellow silk scarf trails behind
As if waving goodbye to a past day
Which her musings cannot cast  away

Long black hair glistening almost blue
Under the moonlight’s calling
Her pure thoughts though are scrawling

The names of each raconteur
Whose tales she slept
And whose tails she kept

For with the morning dew
She wears only sheer - white dresses

While with death - she caresses
