3/6/14:

I am a hostage to her sorrel lakes the way a vascular organ is to a ribcage.

Incessantly, rife violets spring from the starkest crooks in her chest and

when she is sad, it rains; so she grows-

an eden of Arctic debris protruding her marrow like a human greenhouse.

So I know; and more thorough than the pools of my ankle bruises,

I will not tire of her flowers.
