Nerium oleander

There are names like stuffy flowers,
And there are views, like a dancing flame ...
There are dark sinuous mouths
With deep and damp corners.

There are women. "Their hair is like a helmet,
Their fan smells fatal and subtle.
They are thirty years old. - Why do you need, why?
My soul is a Spartan child?
