Fritillary's (Agraulis vanillae) Valentine

Finding someone

who smells like

himself he flits

around the yard

after you or her

his mate her beauty

it’s not the fall

but the moment of

the rejection which

precedes it and

the gradual rescue

which follows

puny because of

how little effort

is given

to saving oneself.
