Thirst
small drops of small
water drops on
small parts of small
petals open on
small drops of small
water drops

Sorrowful
tears and pain over
the sheaf emptied of its wheat
the wine bottle holds no wine
the candle wax remains
after the wick is gone
the sheaf emptied of its wheat
the wine bottle holds no wine
the candle wax remains
after the wick is gone

Summer
worker bees are breaking down
they travel by truck
from farm to farm
their hives on wheels
no home no familiar blossoms
or fields
no silence save for buzzing
here the bees
find respite in lavender
planted at the edge of
the small front yard
or roses clinging to old shingles
in the city
they thrive

Nearby
my neighbor's garden
has roses as red as blood is
and white as any
cliché or fairy tale's
princess
yet white as it exists
only in image
or imagination

1130 Miles: X11:Trying To Be Blue
no blues too low
to sing
no sorrow to deep
to write
no day so glorious as
today
to sing
no sorrow to deep
to write
no day so glorious as
today
