Behind your simple prose and light eyes
A darker ribon ties
A veil
Dropped once at the first act.

Take a bow,
The rose I throw for you has a tooth for you
I watched a drop of scarlet land on your blue shirt
A tiny bullet hole.

The actor within
Schemes, contorts and writhes
Simply,
Surely.
May your roses be as blue.
