Pink Morning Horizon

A Boy With Roses

You enter earth's pulpit garish and proud, son of yesterday. Thinking my bedroom is a rostrum for your picnics. A naked torso that could be folded and put into a little brown suitcase to carry away. The charioteer is the paparazzo for a radiant face. When I turn around I look to see a piece of Heaven for open hands. As the years went by and faces turned to statues the ink on the paper dried and smoke stuck to the flowery wallpaper.

    At my age sometimes I do feel like a 'son of yesterday', but don't worry, I won't invade your bedroom! 🙂
