Strange Garden

Strange garden
This ancient Eden by the freeway
The perfumed aftermath of tragedy
Sorrow sleeping in delusion
 
Holy canyons
They echo with fallen healers
Reflections kneeling by the rivers
Of the saints they knew as children
 
Mourning Roses
Pressed in dead as dreamers  
Who leave their pail and castles
To the wind for her dominion
 
Grey over grey eves
Brown over brown leaves
Three windows with their curtains drawn
Dissolving morning into
The stasis of deception
