Pink flowers with black hearts
don’t be fooled by the beauty
petals forgone
Laughter insidious
forgotten sun
earthen wares full of gin
Sheer shuttled
niceties play
along your skin
Pink flowers forgotten
left handed fools
with right sided grins
Night shaves the dark
as pigeons prick and piddle
the legs of chicken skin
Poisoned pretty lady
ladles the night shaded
cupped and dripping thin.
