Poems By Beth Stolar
Kehayes |
The Rose
Encapsulated
by tight satin flesh.
In pasture green
the red petals
have hungered
and spoken.
Kneaded the dirt
with fingernails
collecting debris
of seasons.
In dreamy musk
meeting florals
felled into an abyss.
Where the sun meets a sickle moon
and I wrap your limbs
around a trellis with care.
Only to pierce my finger
so it bleeds.
And I console it
with my lips
as I would you
and the thorns
of discontent.
