The Unmet Twin

Unknown to me these parallels ran smooth Fraternal twins, unlike in face but both Against her sister, but dormant in youth. My Esau stunting Jacob in his growth Suppressed was Joseph with his coloured coat A beauty stunted, tulip shot by frost Unknown again not parallel, but throat Cuts throat and Jill comes tumbling down, forgot. A buried track uncovered, secret twin Emerging from the rubble fully fledged Unparalleled but rounded, softer skin Than rigid bars which is a sword two-edged. By time those bars were rusted, overgrown With winding blossoms, rusted bars their throne.
