held by nightmares dreamt
in sharp fluorescent darkness
she unfolds the sky
shattered stars

secrets asmolder
chain her to the dregs of dawn
drowned by shattered stars
stained rose quartz

shards of stained rose quartz
perforate sheets soaked in sin
and sunken moonlight
violent night
Silent scream - study I, 2005, unique polaroid print by © Miles Aldridge, courtesy of the artist
her silent screams betray
their hollow shadows beneath
the violent night
