About this episode
Shimmer
Jessie Marie
my shimmering heart draped in tears
drums a song behind a thorny cage
ghosts dressed in moonlight
wail against the inky black of night
sorrow is stitched into their eyes
an echo of dreams heard on the wind
I restore myself in the light of the stars
a spotlight of hope drinks me up
such a dream of being whole again
