Unsettled in these restraints I throw stones, for the sake of sounding.         Somday In May Hopefully Apathetic Wed, 27 May 2009 16:45:48 GMT /section-228-hopefully-apathetic#comments 5 https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/comments/post.php/article/4183 https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/comments/feed.php/article/4183 https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/links/trackback.php?anchor=article%3A4183 https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/article-11464-in-response-to-my-highest-values https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/article-11464-in-response-to-my-highest-values * Margot Meloy Margot Meloy ~ NubCake Extraordinaire Wed, 27 May 2009 16:45:46 GMT /section-118-margot-meloy-nubcake-extraordinaire#comments 0 https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/comments/post.php/article/11464 https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/comments/feed.php/article/11464 https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/links/trackback.php?anchor=article%3A11464 https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/article-5360-the-duty-of-roses https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/article-5360-the-duty-of-roses When laid heavily roses perform savagery on the lips of orchids. Snarled against thorn and thought. Onerous breath brought by love’s retreat pulls petal from stem. Beauty remembers when hands held roses who knew nothing of death. When love was a sonnet whispered gently through hopeful tuned ears.
