"Taya."
Metal angel wings
Strange sun glints on steel and wire
Icarus in flight.
(for Dru Pagliassoti's "Clockwork Heart," my current steampunk read)
"Night and Day."
Swimming in stardust
Constellation night-diving
Gears of a clock turn;
My dreams are clouded
But there are visions of a
Future-past lifetime;
In the daylight hours,
I long to wear my tiny
Hat and watch the skies.
ALSO bonus link: The DivineIguana on Etsy has some PHENOMENAL jewelry. I saw some of it in person at a local arts fest.... this is the classy, modern, real-deal stuff, guys. Legit. I'm in talks to order a piece from her right now. :3
