a dull ache
dust in her chest
where butterflies of youth
used to bloomshe missed the butterflies
at least they made her
feel like she was flying
but she didn't water the flowers
so the world
watered them with poison
and flowers grow butterflies
.
.
.
we are all gardeners
flowers grow butterflies
butterflies grow flowers
what do you want to grow?
