Dream #7

Eva Hertz for Lady Haidee

Always cats

This time
Real cats made from
Old patterned fabric
And sawdust

Badly sewn together
Coming adrift at the
Seams
Cloth covered tiny fangs

And trapped kittens

Every dream sees me
Trying to keep track
Of where the defenceless
Have crawled

All this as I make a mess of a beautiful garden
Attempting to plant
Fallen boughs
Covered in white blossom

No, it's an ink drawing, it was part of a design I did for a singer called Lady Haidee (you can ssee the full version on her myspace). Hertz
