    When poisons are sweet;
    Bitter twisted, transformed
    Into colours alive,
    Pink, yellow, orange.
    And a pen scratches names
    One after one again
    But these people won’t scream
    They won’t come to their end,
    They’ll be given new minds
    To bring them new thoughts
    To fall in love with bland
    Sand-covered rocks,
    To forget what is art,
    To belie their own hearts,
    To become remiss
    Is the sought-after bliss,
    And I love to be named
    By these things that I do
    By people and rocks,
    For I love stones too.

    nice one...last four lines, just pure poetry. especially the "And I love to be named/By these things that I do" line...amazing bit of wordplay there. cheers.
