petals that shall never fall
pewter leaves, etched, brown ruddy stain
cold street lights on faded brick wall
moths cling to illumination, in light they drown
rain washes down gurgling drain
a flower for you...a shower for the few
overgrown. overbearing. over there staring
wishing and waiting, withheld breath fainting
wanting
for the petals that shall never fall...
