She walks
from rosebud
unfolds
decisions
kisses
his fingers
—from the tumbler
of acid
he exits
as honest
as a razor.
2
He imagines
her not
fully human
a heart pumps
a different blood
3
Destiny places
its final cup
at the shore
she bends,
lifts it
to her ear
and prays.
4
She holds
him
next to her
wanting
places
(only dreams
remember)
1
Their fingers
fused
when she
reached his
knowing
they would
never separate
Even when she
Pardoned herself
and left
the room.
