Inspirations of Christabel LaMotte
Dolly knows all, Dolly never tells
The secrets that befalls
The toymaker and baker’s boy
In the shame they share.
Dolly always sees, Dolly never bleeds
With pain, with agony
The man behind the mirror
Punishes happily.
Dolly cannot cry, Dolly never lies
The heart shielding misery
Throbs and breaks
Until damaged mystery.

Lovvve “the toymaker and baker’s boy” great assonance <3
I don’t know what assonance means but it must be the thing I loved in that phrase. Derishiss!
This poem makes me so thirsty to know what it means. Thanks for the magicalness, Carina.
Cutting poem with a deep cut reference!
The word themes throughout got me feelin all sorts of emotions. Nice one.
