little giant Zoe Fieldman Art by: Claire Weber

g She sets fire to the sky so I may watch my hope burn, and then when the ashes settle the night befalls me once again.

I wish I could lay on my side like a little giantess offering up her body as a mountain With steep inclines stretching up to a supple peak A climb whose completion marks an accomplishment Not Shame I do not wish to be these rolling hills With hand holds And foot holes A climb whose completion marks Shame Not Accomplishment

I want you to carve me valleys Yes with your fingertips but also with your river Coursing through my veins as your fingertips rain down on me Eroding away my rough patches Until all that is left Are the pure minerals underneath The mineable Valuable Material Hiding underneath my landscape

Carve your name into my skin This time with scorching flames from your mouth Letting my hills roll away Revealing the little giantess still fast asleep underneath
