sometimes collaboration creates beauty. like when a book is found and it is full of poetry that is less than satisfactory to the readers, and so the readers collaborate with the writer and become reader-writers and subtract to create a new word life that has meaning for the beholders.

Here is the outcome of such a transformation:

unwrap the new scent
bathe in jungle flower water
an orchid in Your hair
paint Your nails lavender or tangerine
beckon
to a young clean sinless dance
in beauty's arms
and again
beckon
to another
or another and to one
the promise of love
all of a sudden burst
weeping
and weep for all the supple
sinuous death in the world
and for red blood
shattering green grass
and for all the shattered thorns
