Mabon
there are dead leaves
sprouting from her amber spine,
reaching with child-fingers
to devour the sun.
her skin is freezing,
seeping winter through
november pores.
seeking warmth,
the whiskey tongues
of godless boys
wish to decipher
the atlas of her thighs.
counting the sleepy fireflies
alight in her lungs- there is
wanderlust churning & warming
her frostbitten heartstrings.
swinging pendulum hips,
"I am the tease of autumn flames.
I breathe in mint sunsets,
& gasoline dreams."

In keeping with your initial image, might I make a suggestion ? Exchanging "decipher" and "atlas" with something along the lines of bend, and branching.
Other than that ?
You have the making of a damn fine writer in my opinion. :)

Thank you so much.
I've been writing most of my life.
But I've just in the past year or so began to branch out. :)
