rosegold by ahsek novel

PRECIOUS metals/silver and gold/with roses and broken down stones/flower petals/crushed into stress/day after day/skin tone imperfections/the light and dark/of beauty/put on display/then shimmer and dissolve/like a haulted single breath/wasted time filters/through eyes as/a constant cycle of life and death/so shine bright/until there is nothing left/but dust and poems
