Those who dress
in borrowed
feathers
will feel the itch
either
weather

feather by
feather
the feathers
will fall

until one stands
defeathered
no feathers
at all

all defeathered
all in nude
there's no way
one can
delude

borrowed feathers
are others
feathers
whether
or not

silk or
leather.

A tempting piece, beautifully drawn, exposing.
my immediate thoughts, may I share.

Threads And Bows

Silk threads played
by pulling bows
across a violin
how soft the tones
so allude as feathers
fall on those
bared, exposed
eyes wide shut
blind to understand
what we wear
is not our own
feathers leave our hand.
