Stench

Stench of a trash can /

left open in the alley — /

Voodoo lily blooms.

Photo finish Friday: “Voodoo lily”

Voodoo lily

Voodoo lily gleams. /

Dark stench of rotten flesh blooms /

briefly in the sun.

Once

Once proud and erect, /

open and putrid, this corpse /

Is corpse bloom no more.
