My first work in the pantoum styling

Oneiric
A pantoum

A rose by any other name,
still has blood letting thorns.
Natural beauty has never been tamed.
Alike to the Minotaurs of scorn

Still has blood letting thorns.
Oh, blood-red crystalline rose.
Alike to the Minotuars of scorn
Hellenic figures sealed within sarcophagi of prose.

Oh blood-red crystalline rose.
Figure of love’s virgin history.
Hellenic figures sealed within sarcophagi of prose.
Elizabethan minstrels intone your mystery.

Figure of love’s virgin history
Natural beauty has never been tamed.
Elizabethan minstrels intone your mystery
A rose by any other name.
