Tea Roses

Extra light

licks the edges off a hot one

today is sprayed on

pink-pink

pealed & spastic

They smell like food

wrapped around a single thought

Getting married

upon reentry into the earth’s

starter beds

Pink starts

Pink air made out of gas giants

Floating on their backs in a chromosome wash surrounded by fragrance experts

Honore de Balzac & Marilyn Monroe

hold hands

a child’s voice can’t

get this pink
