Electric Woman

Dark house silhouetted against a violet sky.
Within, on dusty wooden floorboards,
The electric woman dances.
Made of purple light,
She waves her emerald shawl
Of living silk that breathes
A thousand singing voices in harmony.
Awake, I watch from my window
Across the street, holding on tight to my blanket,
Trying not to sleep.
