Muse


narcissus was beautiful—the very definition of it

the gods spent ages on his eyes alone

where nymphs would stop and stare; 

as they’ve never seen a mélange so blue

but when your face reddens

head tilted, cheveux noués

you so deathly define “muse”

there i know,

if the gods spent ages on narcissus

they spent eons on you

☆

my lips have not shut up since the last time we kissed

the sheer prospect has me stealing from prose

curled, tearshed , 3yes intact

their black lashes, matted, like yours
