pick me up properly
changing infancy energy

clarified butter
1 cup mint
3 parts nasturtium

once grass
seemed deeper
now
prized, contained

bite bitter
pungent fever
shifty roots

dependent
austere
it is todays found forms

how many times do i have to tell you
to leave me
be

it really hurts to see myself continually
hurting you when you
could leave

i ask you all the time to just let me go
and let me wither
in peace

why
looks like plant imagery is just becoming a thing now. my birds have flown.
