The Flowers in the Hood

Poem

By K.A. SmithPublished 2 months ago 1 min read

The room...
and a flower basket and
the wall between them,

romantics, it
says.

Outside
come see me or not,
smell through,
use your watts.

Outside,... bed.

Thinks outside,
thinks the flowers,
thinks the box,

keepsakes!
For her...

stable-hoods.
