The rose that no longer blooms in the garden,
blooms inside her whole body, among the veins and organs and the skeleton. -- Linda Gregg A hidden blossoming. Petals flaming beneath the skin. And a softness pressing, as delicate as the mouth of a blind lover. Each movement, each quiet gesture awakens a rosary in the blood. Was it desire which brought her to this moment, this arrival at source, or was it merely a need to be still, to be richly fed from this fountain of dark silence.
