that life she abandoned unthinkingly
dead woman holds a piece of paper with a map,
of a place that is hidden from all eyes
dead woman pauses, takes a deep breathe
(I want to know how she breathes silence)
"is that dead woman merged into me, unknowingly?"

could be...enough dead people walking around these days...
Could be a scary thought. Is she invited or not?

Symbolic, metaphorically, or Zombie dead?
Loved your 55 Gautami.
You have such a creative mind!!
Thanks for playing, and have a Kick Ass Week-End
I have those days once in a while.
Oh, can feel the pain in words.
She will come alive soon.

Very nice and thought provoking!
We are at the end of a long line of dead people, just by being alive. Good 55.
Intriguing words.

Do you really want to know?

Is she you? I think not.
Excellent Post!

Thanks for the great read.
As I still live and breathe.
a moaning mantra heard by the lost looking to be found... love this gautami...
haunting, profound 55,
You have me thinking about the living dead I have been and whom I know.
Wow, haunting indeed.
yeah how does she breath silence.....nice imagination
hmmm...life does manage to kill us--bit by bit doesn't it?
its scary how we never notice until the end.
a poignant piece indeed!
