Apr 2016
a spilling broth of muse*
shimmering under the golden flicker
golden rays folding
travelling like a flock of pollen
downy ethereal of a darling rose
peckered white and chuckling
the brambles scraping the sky
the way my flesh warmed
in the insolent pair of eyes
hidden as one with the bloom
the crackling of thunder
ignited in his hearth
yet the dangle of curls
crude flick of his wrist
yet the disguise perceives
a performance which doesn't
fool her
and the rose quivers
from the breath which escapes
a glimpse of a softness
before gone his footsteps
*pad softly in the dawning torrent
shimmering under the golden flicker
golden rays folding
travelling like a flock of pollen
downy ethereal of a darling rose
peckered white and chuckling
the brambles scraping the sky
the way my flesh warmed
in the insolent pair of eyes
hidden as one with the bloom
the crackling of thunder
ignited in his hearth
yet the dangle of curls
crude flick of his wrist
yet the disguise perceives
a performance which doesn't
fool her
and the rose quivers
from the breath which escapes
a glimpse of a softness
before gone his footsteps
*pad softly in the dawning torrent
