Allergies

From the vault October 12, 2016

I knew the perfume in this room
Smelled too damn good today
Blossoms baracade breath
Poison posing as pretty  

Ugh, posies are just posers
Scent sent as sentiment
Better yet sympathy
Poison posing as pretty

My head gains migraines
Throat throbbing tickles
Nose and eyes trickle
Poison posing as pretty

Like weeds in wishing wells
We build our own living hells
In a golden age--in a golden afternoon
Poison posing as pretty.
