the way some flowers can be said
to be there for themselves
with their peccadillos and procedures
how else could you hold all
the garden’s sins and failures
to your breast like flowers
but in a heap of ardor
slowly curing your heart
in the cold fire of forgetting
crumbling to your knees
posing as a grave or wave
dreaming of your return
trembling in the trees
