She lies in silence, spent
after the gore of the party
the meat locker of attraction
she reposes in the party dress
of dreams of the one
an ill-defined ephemeral shape
"In your arms" plays as a soundtrack
as her head massages her broken heart

My Quercine legend,
you see centuries changing
I grow old in one.

Nearly 20 years on from my #PlanetsSuite of poems about our solar system, this seems somewhat apposite for today's prompt word.

It seems apposite to include a poem from my recent book published by @jamjarpublishing which features their word of the day #Greenwood, albeit in two halves.
