Wonton Pillows


Clip the maskWorn and tornPeel back the Cheshire grin purring See Pom pom translucent orbsBalancedTidy and trim prickedA sly eye winked glances Catch A bowed green obtuse edge 4 play rivets the scent of the lonely roseSingularly reaching out with her thorns amidst the massesAwash in tissue paper colorsPurple madder saved for lastA color that crinkles the edge of air Sound The bounce of her curl weights the stop Quick Lace her with lovers whispersSighs muffling ecstasyGiggles bouncing off the goose downSink or sweatThe curve of the wanton pillow Rosemary sweetRimmed in gold and scarlet silk ribbonsSnuggled in the cup of interlocking palms Breath She’s alightDrifting in a temperate breezeNestled in the susurrus of the pine, palm, & acacia


I don't know the exact date this was created, I believe around 2015, my receptionist poetry period.
