tomatoes and roses
too much shade
around the places
where I lived
and yet how could I live
without the things I loved
so much of the time
as if every grown person
should have to grow
some blue or yellow flower
and care for it like
a daughter or a son
and think of it
carrying it around
night and day
as that part of us
almost everything
in the world
would like to kill
