<p>Someone once called me the Rainbow Bridge,<br/>

being the crossing point between so many worlds,<br/>

but I am neither bi<br/>

nor could I ever abide<br/>
|

frost over the surface of this roiling sea<br/>

in this metaphor of mine.<br/>

I move too violent,<br/>

too constant,<br/>

for the whole thing to freeze<br/>

<p>But I certainly feel like being quartered<br/>

face from hand from back from limb<br/>
|

trembling to keep my mind<br/>
|

in a bedroom lost and somehow dimmed.<br/>
|

Three different bloods rage inside<br/>
|

and two are battling for my skin<br/>
|

and your fingertips brushing the back of my neck,<br/>
|

the temples where bone and antler connect,<br/>

are the only reminder you're here to protect<br/>

me, promised by palm to keep me sane<br/>

even if draconity ever overcame<br/>

me and my body forcibly changed<br/>

to that of a beast.</p>

<p>Do you think, if a stranger ever saw,<br/>

they'd mistake me for a particularly messed-up elk?<br/>
|

Wonder where my eyes went, or why so blunted my maw?<br/>
|

A creature too exquisite for this world, too peculiar for their ilk,<br/>
|

have to always stay on the periphery<br/>

or in long-lost bedrooms where nobody can see<br/>

the ribbons with every breath wavering.<br/>

You will with me stay<br/>
