Black Carnations

Carnations and candlelight black Cadillac Seville sleek ace of spade fury six chambers for a lifetime to set things just right bang bang eight balls ricochetting bang bang rack'em up chump cue sticks red velvety dusted musk oil grinding virgin blood diamond dead snake eyes star mist and streamer stiletto and sequin unchain the ceiling throbbing dreams kneeling pearls riding moonbeams sin sighing salvation cracking pink champagne black satin bullets and golden chains drawing down mahogany shades Caving in the morning red-eyed and dead glory two black carnations sunny side down.
