‘Name Unavailable’
But I was peering at its pistil
Green and reminiscent
Of a broken praying mantis
Stuck in the middle of a pinwheel
The strangest flower in the world
My climbing passion-
Vine the animality of it
A lust so pure it proves
There is another life
Of five green sepals
And five pink petals
Though when you stand back
The overall effect is lavender and purple
