[hometext] => Lately I've been reading more Emily Dickinson and Edgar Allen Poe so I think they have really influenced the style of this poem. They are great inspirations.
[bodytext] => Wash away the afterthoughts of thorns amongst the roses red, Know for him who knoweth naught, Of the consequential bed, See for him who seeth naught, The lady clad with dead. Bring forth her blackened garden, From soil: dry and unfed, Grow her there with evil, Amongst the bluebells and the autumn. High-born kinsmen of the Lord Himself, See your flowering women, Pleasuring themselves with the bloom of urgency, Not so easily forgiven. Dilute their sins with pleas of inequities, And all the bounds of heaven.
