A New Testament
Synonyms are joy
until it come to joy
and dilution throws distilled
from yawning throne
The shimmer -coy
holds in shadow
prising where I scrabble
for her approval
Through net I
unsew prayers with ritual
burn pistil that bore
to lay in mud
Blazing palmerosa
my duty -one
to water us
into petals
Basking in scent
is perfect grace
to reshape our
endless envy songs
To dismantle each other
mantle bones
knowing both
the shimmer
