Listen to poem:

A silver brush stroke turns rose thorns into blossoms, fangs into white shells lion roar hums you befriend~ while shadows follow your feats mist makes a palace where puddles and weeds had been you drink the shimmer~ never asking what lies shrill behind the painted curtain. the day peels scene back the crown, only thorns in sun shows what's becoming~ smoothing the frown from your brow, following in afterglow
