When rotten branches go  
Where roses go when pruned
Because they’re of the whole
With time they both grow mold
And no difference will be seen
By eyes of you and nor of me

I am the two-toed wanderer

Beautiful; possessed a quality of 'The Sick Rose' by Blake.

They aren't flaps; they're my face!

tis true in time all things are like
your words a concise finality
so to keep my roses forever fresh
they are tattooed upon me.
