The girl who turned into a Bed

It happened that day
she picked some strange pussy willow.
Her head swelled up white
and soft as a pillow.
Her skin, which had turned
all flaky and rotten,
was now replaced 100% cotton.
Through her organs and torso
she sprouted like wings,
a beautiful set
of mattress and springs.
It was so terribly strange
that I started to weep.
But at least after that
I had a nice place to sleep.
