Hannah Dewhurst
Looking for Hannah Leigh
Hannah Leigh is a label hand-stitched into a baby’s face
Hannah Leigh is a collection of glass jars filled with sand
Hannah Leigh is a high, hollow ring
The afterthought of a gunshot
Hannah Leigh is the middle seat of a patched up grey couch
Hannah Leigh is thirteen cinnamon quills propped against misted glass
A piled wall surrounds Hannah Leigh
Stones, driftwood and rusted wire
Where all the doors are mirrors
Hannah Leigh is a tangle of red spattered ivy
Hannah Leigh is a dust drowned bible
No wax-eyed masks
Or copper pyres
