Poisonous

 Brugmansia.


Poisonous flowering plants.
Fragrant.  Known as angel's trumpets.

Beware of beauty & fragrance.
Beware of what you place in your mouth.
Beware of what you put to paper.
But take it all in -- hungerly.
& listen
to your ear
to your mouth.

  1. Is light the azntidote to all poison
    Is there truth in the lies not yet told,
    the rock still not turned over
    Outside the rain hammers the flowers
    it is supposed to rinse and shine
    They bend and turn in the unforgiving wind
    as I think of visiting the lass on a hill
    her truth, her bountiful table
    her version of the world
