JEJUNE UNDERTONES

With a psychosomatic washcloth she wipes . . . .

 

She thinks the constant erasures in her mind

Will wipe the slate clean of those emotions,

Those still reverberating haunting memories

Beating like a heartbeat just below the surface

A constant reminder of the subterranean pain

Buried deep within her unconscious psyche . . . .

 

But like little bubbles from below they rise.
