Thoughts
Hunched over the dining room table Reading glasses slid down his nose Creating, he was, no fable Crumbling, he was, his rose. Aware only of his own rein Eyes riveted unbent ahead Her happiness he would feign Only to restitute his stead. Sprawling himself in her riches His silhouette emboldened the light Laying her in many ditches Easily she lay down without fight. He knew she knew She knew he knew That he could take What was not his. Hunched over the dining room table Reading glasses slid down his nose Creating, he was, no fable Crumbling, he had, his rose. c 2006

So many times we use roses in our work, but you give them a new and creative meaning here. Dramatic imagery. Well done.

this is a super poem Rose, hope it's fictional and maybe that rose might use a few thorns

That is such a double play on scene. Is he a writer with his protaganist or a man awaiting his beautiful lady?

Intense and mind working, as this semi-dark poem makes one wonder how the players got to this stage in their lifes and way of thinking.
