Sylvia's Flowers

Sylvia's Flowers

She caressed them within her poems and fingers

They bled, dirtying her tidy appearance

Betraying gems of disguise!

Life and death atop snapped green narrows

I feel her, lusting their ripe oozing whistles

The pollen of sex yellowing her finger tips

Caked on her bottom lip

Dying at her clitoris

The caskets always appeared

Grand and cold and clipped

Red tulips saviors crucified, her whitened knuckles

I’ve gone mad, I’ve gone mad!

&

Poppies

Sweet poppies

Opium bags, foggy sanatoriums

Easing veils and crippling

Slaps

Of so many lilies &

The lily she faced, the mirror of her outer edges

Fading

Never what she thought

Never

Did dying

And barren organs

Cry so



January 2010
