I placed a rose In domed glass I called it mine I smiled In the dim Of the shallow light I let in I willed this rose Stay beautiful For me I watched it wilt When it dried The petals Lay beside Stem left Splintered Thorns dull With disdain I blamed the rose I plucked another Replacing my shame I thought Till it happened again

Possession
I placed a rose In domed glass I called it mine I smiled In the dim Of the shallow light I let in I willed this rose Stay beautiful For me I watched it wilt When it dried The petals Lay beside Stem left Splintered Thorns dull With disdain I blamed the rose I plucked another Replacing my shame I thought Till it happened again
