she spoke diamond to me.
lips like crystals with words cutting my heart
in two. three. for her I'd break myself into pieces
and place myself upon her wall. like stucco stars
screaming words like prisms.

and she's kicking heart.strung promises
like we're reckless kids on the beach. broken bottle-
like romance. with edges meant for frail wrists
and these words are my razor sharp fists.

and she's wearing her words around her finger
like some sort of goodnight kiss. spoken in slightly
whispered words that crave freedom. tonight we're speaking
rings like saturn and she's making wishes in
clear coat prayer form.

and she's pure.
when she speaks- we're lost in abstract.
and she's silent.

it's like diamonds fall from her lips.

for me, this episode in the series seems to develop imagery and figures that most creatively reveal the overall conceit of the series. The rings, the heavens and the many ways in which the characteristics of the jewel are artfully applied make this verse by far my favorite. And I do agree, that forth stanza is momentous in tone and sentiment.... sending the reader into the heavens, paralleling the said speech of unnamed woman. *bows before jeweler and wordsmith*
