Bluebeard's Closet by Ralph Hamilton
__________________________________________
When the door would open
The eye would scarcely fall
Upon rococo patterns
Of a papered wall.
For thrusting out in stark
And shining hues
Of reds
And perintoneal grays
And visceral blues
An intricately webbed
Resilient filigree
Of entrails
Hung from hook and hanger
With exquisite delicacy.
