Wet Knife (Revision)

I Love it! I would follow through further with the flower metaphor right within the opening line and make it a Boutonnière for a male victim or a corsage for a female one. Then rework bouquet into a more potent statement than just a reiteration of the flower, besides a bouquet is more than one flower. I would do something like this:

You mistake it for a corsage.
A thorn near the heart.
A lover's declaration streaming
limpid petals upon your fingers tips.

See what you think./Chris
