Marmalade horizons sheeted-safe Honey Supple-soft on tarmac Dear Spoken as sweet sanctity-celestial wake up Smiled at stiff swollen questions Stole(n) melodies hummed the subway A reverie, a reverberation of similar lives Shave shine serene-sight Soul-sweet-star Sacred deer in the lights Indigo hue tipped golden Dusted shyness with brief glance With sculptor / render / slender…
