"The Iron Scent of Paris Roses."

Elizabeth Rose Belier 1989 (Paris)



The valley of the Paris roses,
longest life without the poses,
old as hell is old as Moses,
longest life with Paris roses,
when you write you get a fist,
when you try you always missed,
fly the kite that talks to twist,
when you write you get a fist,
old the ball you'll always lose,
baby base of milk you choose,
adults and children never try,
only animals live in eye,
only oceans in pacific Paris,
cherish those who always play,
if they make a noose you always pay,
if you cry you die inside the day,
cherish those who always try,
cry inside the tidal simple,
in adolescents its always pimple,
play with lights together trying,
get the tad of gravy dying,
right the wrongs retired baby,
Paris Roses invented rights,
Paris Roses in moonlit nights,
Paris Roses I'm always free,
with Paris Roses its a Destiny,
of dying hell in eternal flames,
but just for me its Heavens Games.
Selah.
