Dance Steps

[Alic Elliot]

Woman with tears.
Woman with chapped seams. I don't tgink I know what “chapped seams" means.. Clarify with better word choice maybe?
Woman of scarlet lipstick.
Woman of raped dreams.

She once told me she wanted
to dance, later pranced into a grave  
with music coming from every hole
in her tired body.
Why the sudden change in style?

Overall, it's nice. Dark, which you executed well. 
I just don't know what “chapped seams" means. And, the sudden change in style doesn't seem.. Right for the poem, in my opinion. The first stanza was sharp and jagged, while the second is smooth and silky. I may not be getting the meaning or something, though.

Best,

Alic
