My saguaros don’t love
the heat anymore
than I do they’ve
simply learned to
defeat it every day
to stand there like
St. Sebastian letting
the sun use them
for target practice
though they know
they’re outnumbered
their arms can only resist
as a way of waving time away
if nothing else with them
it’s elegant and simple
there’s inside and outside
there’s roots and stars
what else would serve?
