Diamondsuit
by Rachelle Pinnow
This parquetry
of vari-shaded words; this text,
a mishmash textile
of cross-woven meaning.
Next rhombus image
built on the last: a card house
whereby the top tiers
are not constructed of cards
but of butterflies.
Wings cloaked in diamondsuit.
Each stanza reads
as a lozenge.
◊P:
it is possible
that the poem is true.
