desert flower looking for rain

a hand held
judge and jury
cool to my
touch, yet
brings a fire
to your heart

and ...
while your
black soul
seeps to
the ground
and your
gurgles of life
are drowned out

the small patch
in the garden
where the lilies
grew ... until
beaten into
submission

now stretch
their roots
to quench their
thirst...

and I have
to wonder...

if the only
drink left
is from
demonic sewage

will the sweet
fragrance
and delicate
petals
grow demon fangs
and rip apart
the flesh
of a true
gardner?

Neve, reading again, I see yet another avenue for my thoughts to travel...yes, engaging, once again.

It really makes me think.  Good job.

Love is the law, love under will.

when I'm told that I've made someone think, because of what I wrote, then I know I've accomplished what I had set out to do.

thank you for your replies.
