For Something

A Poem by Satish Verma
"

Genus Viola. Which gender you want it

"
Genus Viola. 
Which gender you want it 
to belong? 
Pansy was most effeminate. 

The tender touch. 
It reaches you inside. You 
start trembling 
like aspen, ready to fall. 

Full breasted, a 
crimson moon will spill 
the buttermilk for 
a rosarian. 

It was hot, very hot 
for the quivering pearls of pistons; 
for merciless decapitation.
