Death of a Rose
that
you
give
wooden
nickels
to
those
who
would
give
you
silver
.
its
not
surprising
that
you
take
without
fulfilling
a
bargain.
you
have
left
me
without
a
smile
,
a
hardened
fact
learned
and
stored
in
memory
.
its
not
surprising
that
you
offer
and
refute
the
initials
you
tout
so
highly
.
you
praise
in
the
quiet
,
you
dance
without
others
,
you
revel
in
your
refusal
of
words
,
you
cannot
fool
the
once
touched
.
