Lavender Siren

By lupus tenebrae

 



Pardon blushing flattery by the lapel
of my denim, winter eyes, cold as needless
shiver cellos, lamenting over headstones.
Piano sadness…

Instead of her caressing in times of grief,
unsung in her ivory and stones unturned,
met with marble, lavender siren’s dresses
stupefy the heart.
