My love it came, my love it went...
So I plied and so I played
with brevity and breadth, I gauged with breath
and depth
and mined and moulded, and with my arms I then held it.
Three stones.
A big black rock. An average to large white rock. And a smaller yellow
rock... The economy of desire was measurable but not immutable
And with all that was left, bent gold around each cleft,
was shaped band and claws from a propeller lent.
Till threaded and golden gleamed this ring thrice revolving.
[Threaded, that is, to keep her mindful of the stone and of me.]
boxed and placed and presented and requested...
“..?”
So now, she chooses which stone to wear - one for work and one for
stares. One for evenings and one for mournings. One for what ever she
cares.
And now I too play this game of choice... to add another to the
compliment of raw precious diamonds; rough to remind my nights before
her, and rare as the days now empty.
Or, to take one away.
