Clinging
Yellow roses climb /
the side of the old building, /
clinging to a dream.

Poop on the petals. /
Beauty faces rejection, /
but ants aren’t bothered.

Tiger lily
No, Mr. Baker,
it is not an
invasion.
It’s a Tiger lily.
The invasion comes
a few days
later
with beer and
outdoor cooking.
That’s when
the aliens
—grill your meat
—light your fireworks
—conflagrate and celebrate
your auto-da-fe future.

Up
Thunder teases /

Dreams await relief.
