Human Rosebud : Simile Poetry

written by Poet : EC


This was not what I expected
maybe I'm still asleep and don't know
the child sleeps on and on
he isn't mine, but my responsibility today
a very small guest with fists like roses
not opening in his sleep, no small rosebud-fists
ready to do the Tyson-thing, I suppose
all of him exudes roses and fightings
the skin is like rose-petals
fierce, unseeing eyes search for nipples
may be they are thorns out to sting me
as all I have is a nursing bottle
this little precious Tyson-rose robs my day
nothing left for me as he stole each second
my payment: Association with a rosebud
