Kim Rodrigues Poet Free verse

Pennyroyal Festoon

pennyroyal festoon in full bloom —
her English garden plush.

he’s dying to imbibe.
she foresees a crime.

mint feint
tea taint

“sip up darl’n
have a cup
or two”

his purple lips,
pursed,
ready for the kill.

she smiles and winks
as he lies still.
