My ears are so large so I can overhear unkept secrets

My eyes are so large so I can witness

My smile is so large so I can grin and bear it

My shoulders are so large so you can rest your weary head

My chest is so large so I can store the remnants of my weary heart

JESTER (2019)

here lie vacant eyes and sealed lips,

caged in milk-white pearls and jet-black beads,

wired smile, in blood-red glass

empty palms and hunched shoulders,

wrapped in silk.
