Violet's Eyes

Violet frumps, slumps into the sofa
and notes
the bright, white kiss of Chris' fingertips
in the fleshy pink of Rose's knee,
the thrumming purr of Nathan's chest
as Lily's lips slip
into the hollows of his throat.
Violet wants to take the rock
from Rose's finger
and crush it
deep into her cornea,
until the world splinters into diamond, blood,
and diamond.
