red elephant
blue wishbone
murderer in black,
alabaster allocated
onto white canvas
in yellow sunlight
gleaming through
a pink neon slushie
(a silver chrome salad)
a lotus flower blooms
the beautiful
untainted
lotus
grows beneath the slushie's
artificial flavouring
and food dyes
and acids
after the humming
white fluorescent tubes
flicker into darkness
the lotus will float
to the surface of
the acid pink
chemical bath
the lotus blooms
without considering its own
temporary beauty
it simply spreads its
porcelain petals
it simply blooms
when it withers
and lands onto
the immaculate white tile floor
it will not lament itself
the lotus simply dies
no one will be there
to see it:
the passing of its life
