A lovely but dangerous quilt
ReplyDeletewrought from wiry vines.
If left alone,
in a magician's trunk,
it would pain the toucher,
but as a carpet, free,
concealed by flowered beauty,
awaits in innocent glee,
as a patchwork trap
to snap in its grid,
who? You? Me?
This lovely but dangerous quilt
ReplyDeletecould perform the miracle of
the Agony being trumped
by the Ecstacy.
