Violet Skull Scavenger
I came upon you like a path
of broken sprigs
of mint and lavender
Violet skull scavenger
how I do wilt when I dream as
an indigo carousel spun in your eyes
You've broken down every
thought that I might have thought
pearly and sugar wrought
sleeping in peace
'till you crushed them to scent up
our cobblestone walkway by the light of the moon
Now in your recompense
you will dispose, dispense
all of your wisdom in icicle dew
frozen on eye lashes, whispered goodbye flashes
there is no other exactly like you...
