Untoward Thoughts (for Sister Greed)

[Tanner]

Sister Greed, You flatter me too much, and several lovely poems which you give me credit for inspiring as well.

[Sister Greed]

Oh Tanner, I’m sure I could fall in love with you if you’re anything like your poetry! ❤️ I shall respond in like.

[Tanner]

A face shining like a door unhinged
Under the long arm of the moon
To which the dark alluring foliage

Of your sorcery-laden eyes attend
The dark is full of bewitching sleep
And sorrow of forgotten dreams

I want to know what forbidden crops
Flower under your strange tutelage
So that our salvation is not lost
