A fever imprisons me; it’s not the common cold
Laced pearly dreams: breathing pearls, pearls
I keep fighting, but it’s gotten very bold
Purchasing pearl shoes and pearl ties now old
Soul-feeding necessities made of pearls
A fever imprisons me; it’s not the common cold
Glamour stole my money, spent, I am told
Pearls galore and mother of pearls in swirls
I keep fighting, but it’s gotten very bold
Hat of dangling pearl teardrops to behold
Causes tears and class as hair cascades full of curls
A fever imprisons me; it’s not the common cold
Pearl jewelry gains elevation into a centerfold
Striking poses and demeanor, twirls, and whirls
I keep fighting, but it’s gotten very bold
Pearl watches, bracelets hiding in sets of gold
Rings, earrings, chokers mangled, none unfurls
A fever imprisons me; it’s not the common cold
I keep fighting, but it’s gotten very bold

"Paper Is Not Silent!" My dream has loved paper so much for so long because it gave influence to the parched voice of a fashionista poet. Finding this outlet, that voice is now replete with expressive sound.
