Georgia On My Mind

Red Canna
by GC SMITH

Come
taste the
addictive
pearl drops
of heaven's
sweet hot
nectar

Live, love,
enfolded
in dreamscape
from which
no escape
is ever
to be

Georgia's turmoil;
encompassing,
enrapturing,
possessing;
a surreal
dream or a
nightmare?

Who,
but you
can ever
know
what might
lie in bone
beneath the skin
