Woman

Warmth spins universe
Of eternal light, the womb
Mysteries unfold
Arising vice and virtue
Nonplussed; madness blooms in thorns

 

 

          Pulse

Palpitations spread
Unbearable of silence
Lashes crisscrossed on
Sepia toned hearts woven
Eclipsing two suns; pavane'd
 

 

          Cruel
Coiled hair on finger
Ruinous memories, tugged
Under ghostly breath
Echoes Acheron's dismay
Looming rain bursts ground to hiss

 

          Scent
Soft moonlit glow, on
Clavicle, whispers sheltered
Ensues belonging
Notes of blue forget-me-nots
Trapped in silent fingertips

 

 

          Black

Breathe your allusions
Lurid err hell-vermillion
Absent the present
Curtailing laic timbre
Knelled in seashell of my ear
