Beautiful image Nette, I love the allegorical use of beauty as reference to decay and demise. (I saw "tangerine" referenced in a couple of the comments, did you change your poem?)

I don't really understand Minoku, but this certainly awakens wonderful feelings, especially so when considering such paucity of verbiage.
