Poetry: Secrets Of The Fabergé Egg by G.R. Tomaini

Secrets Of The Fabergé Egg

 

Morning - Fog ; Awoken :

As If From . . . A Slumber ;

 

Curse God ! Pocket Full , 

Now Empty : Where Is It ? !

 

Where Is The Fabergé Egg ! — 

It Must Be Back In The Den — !

 

Can ’ t Leave Without It — ,

What Is Time ? Once Mine ,

 

Now Theirs — The Egg Chooses —

Its Keepers : Not Them ! Never ! !

 

The Egg Shatters : Golden Yoke !

Yokey Dokey Went The Dope ;

 

Hose One Off , Out Front : Yoke :

Stains From A Fabergé Egg — !

 

Egg - Whites Ripe With Omens . . .

Hawk The Egg , Now ! Pawn It !

 

But Then You Will Never Learn —

The Secrets Of The Fabergé Egg . . .
