You see its neck between the sheer tunic and the necklace.
You see his cheek amidst the soft down and pearl beads
Its breath is more fragrant than musk and aromatic incense.
It has a scent more fragrant than musk and ambergris

And you would think it a mouth approaching a cheek

When rain claims a shoulder from its trees in retribution,
When rain beats down heavily on its trees
I see the rose's treachery upon their branches.
You see rose buds on their branches
