Green as pallet paint, encrusted
just like yawning sea-green eyes: so private
beneath a prim bob-cut hide soft lips lusted
green as pallet paint, encrusted
and covetous, a girl maladjusted;
a comic chief, dormant eyes aestivate;
green as pallet paint, encrusted
just like yawning sea-green eyes: so private.
Watching like a hawk, covetous
green-eyed girl with the camouflaging heart
in the pit of rife condemnation: gluttonous;
watching like a hawk, covetous
and maladjusted, so infelicitous
to a woman like me: torn, crushed and lusting;
watching like a hawk, covetous
green-eyed girl with the camouflaging heart.

Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.
