Calling Card of the Decorated Man


You always know he’s been here –
faint narcissus scent – a purplish haze –
your senses all accelerate –

ascend a pitch – amazed at colors
that you hear as well as see: chiaroscuro
gentling neon orange: all that once was

tasteless isn’t any more. You’ve found
the way to make it glorious again!
He’s left it at your door.
