trapped and bent within
glass tubes florescent
red & green - a rose grows
in a window wired to be seen

her petals are like brightened
spark her stem is like
green fire - she glows for
drawing customers
to heighten their desire

she was molded in the heat
from gaseous cloud was born
but she has a haughty heart
she has hidden thorns

she's a gypsy in the darkness
because the store is closed
she's a peddler of glass diamonds
false ruby - neon rose
