Flower shop

That involuted orchid
opens out to be
its own question
and proffers its own beginning

Buy back the terror
of the touching fingertips
of young tulips
that look at themselves

Never ask the roses
what they really want
Never choose them
nor be pricked into actions

the end of which
is not in sight


Grant Duncan 8.7.09
