Kerri Shying #462 - listening for flowers

I hadn’t thought   until you said   that time you stayed     

how different  the candles are   that men and women choose   

when the two of you left   I went round all the rooms 

 snout deep in warm wax   in soy grease 

 listening for flowers  

the verdigris  the spots of spice and

citrus  so much vanilla and cinnamon

how right you were    

my taste   seemed awkward

and all sweets
