Shark Fin Skin

Pricked by shark fin skin in the garden only wild men with time enough for flowers can tell the difference between breeds

Every color a success story
some boast their smoothness no thorns easy for the taking
As if the beast has been bred right out of them

Sure domesticated flowers fill the vase but it’s the overgrown forgotten roses with aggressive shark skin and tight buds that blossom too tall to look inside which leave them

leave them
