Our magnolias blooming
Vesicular vignettes, my magnolia–
our magnolias,
blooming in their respective seasons;
seeds planted long ago
reach their pollen infecting spring
staining us all?till triggers spring
and frogs fall
An emotional dilettante is about to tear
An emotional dilettante is about to tear and tear.
Yes. I, the lackey of logic, care,
Unstable as a rocky, cliff-side crag,
Feeling the free-fall- depressed and sad.
Hug me, for I will fall in love with falling:
Craving you, unchecked as a city sprawling.
Right now – irrational as the root of two
Quiet outside, but it’s just a rue.
Underneath the tractors are churning
Above fields of manure turning
A bag of weeds and seeds into a farm
That without plague or swarm
Will harvest bountiful fruit and wheat
Until in the sky we meet.
