hey ho a #dilly dally oh
you drank too much & can't see straight
you were set upon in the alley-oh
a tisket a tasket
your heart carved out its too late
set in a wicker basket
hey ho fire and tallyho
left to roam the night
till out your brains the huntsman blow

#diaphanous sunlight
streams through wispy clouds
over #oleander fields
where the viper lay in wait
we need to take care
we don't let the venom spread
through spiderwebbing veins
and lift the other up
as we walk through tainted beauty
and hold onto hope.

The girl did her research and read that #oleander was deadly.

I'm a particular sort of fairy. I erase our fingerprints from bubbles, petals, & snowflakes. Father said it's noble work. Mother isn't convinced I'm happy. She often speaks of forbidden things & breaks rules. She was the one who invented Iceland spar & gave it to a human.#vss365
Alabaster shores
Burgundy cliffs
Space time distorted
Gravity bends back on itself
And where purple seas
Meet white sand
Stands you
My bare bones keen
With #yen for your touch
But you're out of reach
And you tip the ash
Into the waves -
Blackness.

Her eyes were red and tears ran freely down her cheeks when she answered the door. She tried to smile, but it hurt too much.
She held up the halved lemon still in her hand and said, "Citric #acid, you know?"
