Lequisia the poetess By Dana Carnemalla what are you doing here? Among those solemn Christian portraits with your brash gypsy blue turban contrasting to the stern visage of St. James the greater
your gauze shirt slips back to reveal a milky shoulder unashamed across from the statue of eve repented you stand trapped against that amber background defiant with your quill hanging sultry over packed parchments
resting against your thigh the converted St. Catherine of Alexandria stares across the gallery but beneath that smug interior I could almost swear she seems jealous so are you converted too, Lequisia or did they, as your blazing eyes tell me make a mistake hanging your picture here. |
