Solid silver tears of a Chimaera by Lara Reis

Poem

I am or was, an acid child firelighter, even with my lashes concealed behind mascara,
smokey eyeliner, blasted red lip, tamed hair in a pile of savoir-faire – my soul is a chimaera

screaming in the dark with a skull buried in a pad and silk slip, crying out so loud
that the sound turns into spiritual alchemy. A tear drops from the balcony cloud

around the turn, the curve, of my chin. A silver river, so close to a graveyard
of dreams which once were so close…, but flooded with tear.
