Winter Woman Would Recall Beauty

[alicia_h]

picture and elaborate shadow diamond
sing me a frantic mist, my
urge to manipulate music

or time

cry a thousand moments in one
visions of a repulsive goddess
worship her sordid storm

she in gown of black blood rust
wax skin flood delicate rose lust
whisper and swim languid eternity

never felt gorgeous death
nor rain upon her breast

stare through honey peach petals
soar above her moon & behind their power
spray them under the knife-void sea
