There Is A Rose In Every Candle Poem by Mark Heathcote

There Is A Rose In Every Candle



There is a rose in every candle flame
where the heat is at its highest point
it's-here-my-love-and-I meet to reclaim
our ceremonial oils and anoint;
set alight this butane in one another
again, as beeswax honeycombed
we are inseparable yet juxtaposed
melting as wax flows into lava.
