Roses Again

Pill box liner
milled out pain
dark reminder
sugar cane

rap once for taste
twice for size
watch your pace
blurry eyes

Balance this wire
but why not let go?
Afraid of the fire
burning below

Afraid of the light
shining above
of being forgotten
and being unloved

Round the maypole
drenched in rain
nothing on the table
but roses again
