The Alone Girl By Susan Isla Tepper

I'm the alone girl 
look for me 
in the mulch lined pit
no shirred satin
I've been down here
a long time
if you count
by the moon's cycles
I gave up
believing in stardust
the first year
watching my skin crack
a blood welt near my wrist
where a watch band would go.
A fading planet from inside out.





Susan Isla Tepper is a twenty year writer in all genres. Her stage play "Crooked Heart" will be featured in Origin Theatre Company 'May Play Festival', NYC.
