RED SATIN
Days of red!
Carnations and gardens,
deserts and roses
close their lips to my noise.
Crazy melodies repeat dances to my silence
undressing my flesh from my skin.
Petals bleed from my being
falling on the rocks of the roads I go.
And like bloody orchids reflecting my poise, they glow!
Flayed flesh and vivid flowers
blend in red satin
to unveil my naked soul.
