Battle Stations Ready
by RosesAtSunset on May 28, 2023If you don’t wear armour
Your skin becomes the armour
I peel it off and leave it in the armoury
I sink into the bath and clean my wounds
I could spend days in there
If I wasn’t so restless
I pace
then race
then disgrace
I stay calm
Sound the quiet alarm
She adds more pebbles everyday
As a crow I swallow them
I think they’re working but
I wouldn’t know
So I go to work
