An elven tale of love and loss, told in skaldic speech. A novelette in operatic prose-poetry transforming memoire into crystal menagerie, Hibiscus dances ballet-prose into verse-pirouettes that spin the heart dizzy. Gongora gong-chimes the galleys again, Borges' spindle-spells meshing baroque weep with crack-of-egg-yolk love. Memory made pure with polish, romance raised to relic and holographic shrine, an epitaph of eternal moments now passed, Hibiscus is Rimbaud meets Bragi, Beowulf wrapped Wilde around Hopkins to praise the gifts of the Goddess of Love.
