A Pearl

Circular and square. And a little glimmer
Of peace -
Or agony.

Cool beneath the waters. A small touch
Of green -
Or sunny coral.

Clanking in mine ears - 
But beauty in these eyes -
Through cornea and through 
…Retina.

A painfully perfect tube is drilled - the long days 
Pierced as if a sharp stare of a swordfish 
Glare. 

And a breath-taking fibre passes through the
Scar…and the blood covered by a glistening 
Price sign.
