Unaffected
I could lose myself
in the rain tapping on the window…plop…plop
mid-day drowsy, under fluorescent lights, strobing
I could, but I won’t
it has taken me far too long to find myself…
and this isn’t me…no, not by a long shot

have you heard
the latest titillating
scathing, scandalous news
wise inquirers will
reserve judgment for
the horse’s perspective

42 Day 13
remember me?
fragrant first bloom
on thorny pedicle
purest petals, unfurled
remember me when the wind
whispers you away

Spathiphyllum – 42 Day 11
Spathiphyllum
from amidst the lush
fair lover of dark places
a lily that is not a lily
flame-like spathe raised
in fickle surrender, peace
in season, ever fleeting
