Sequins

red on gold under gold the red thread will tie in the sequin the dress will transform from the funerary gown of soft cloth

metal pearl mother-of-pearl the peacock sequins emphasise the scar : where it was cradled in soft cloth it shifts with light it now shifts with light

a battle armour with shiny metal frilling a mail-coat an armoured dress

the metal frill catches and disperses light from embonpoint to point of candlelight it is no dust no accretion of dust occurs in the music of fabric flame does not show yellow in blue blue glass

sequin it : it hides the wound sequin it: with the red thread sequin it : the loosed skein tack it in stitch on stitch and sequin it cover it
