Vacation Valentine

A lousy businessman
a superficial scholar
a nervous botanist
a sycophantic chef
a skipping pebble
a new-growth forest
an unrepentant summer
a repressed executioner
a gutless lover
all these had gathered
in the vestibule
of one of my dream
mansions but of course
I wasn’t sleeping
I wasn’t even home
