Name your poison –he said
I thought of you
A rum carnation with crimson zest
I blent a smile
Shaken words stirred the silence
You glimpsed at me

“shaken words stirred the silence” — this line, in particular, is wonderful.

I was trying to imagine “a rum carnation with crimson zest”. Interesting. 🙂
