Danielle Roberts is a poet, artist, and model from San Francisco but is currently haunting the hallways of New York. She's hungry for so many things that make life beautiful—flowers, antique jewels, and the longing lips of people brimming with secrets waiting to be seen. Formed from unspoken desires clustered on the tongues of mortals, she's an irreverent evil queen who emerged from a field of dying flowers kissed with sunsets and watered with the spilled blood of first love. Pluck a flower from her bouquet and dance with passion herself.

Palimpsest
My heart is an ossuary:
delicate bones line the chambers,
buttress my ventricles.
A graveyard of former lovers—
this is their ivory mausoleum.
I’ve gouged out the names
inscribed in my flesh to write
our love anew.
But, they rise— unbidden—
spectral apparitions behind your name.
Like secret desires or
blood stains under black light.
