Rosin


More abecedarian fun!

-


a resin from pines

brittle at home with

chairs and cool contexts

dear mix of acids

ease into varnish


faint pine odour, you

Greek pitch, make crystals

hold your glassy seat

in soap, in wax or

jaunty tin sculptures


kink yourself in inks

let the world see your

magic glues; lenses

nipping the old buds

oils wink at suns


plucks on your grand bows

quell the silent times

rapping on knuckles

save the day with grease

the pride of China


under the Scots trees

very small in size

whispers an immense

xuthus-like prize that

yields use after use


zoom to it – it’s huge
