Frozen Mannequin

Frozen mannequin, Stiff jointed, And empty eyed, Walk, dance, move, Discarded in January's river, Sodden with cold, A deadly embrace, From the phantom within, Pained lips and eyes, Wild hair sticking out, Chipped polish, The clumsy dancer, Lost emotions, Drug down, Swimming without the drugs, Flowing only, Floating, Where is your cure, Little doll, Where is the light?
