Garden beauty
.......
Sat in the shade, I'm uncertain
if it's life that's the crucible
or simply this page -
It's hard to say something
new.
The perennial Tulipa;
has it not been described
inside and out?
It's feminine beauty stolen open
for all to see -
or the ladybird beetles'
magnetic mobile armour
being painted as a blood spattered
warning of love
from the lost?
This desert drilled ink
leaks thick onto 20 lines;
technical spacing, laid out
like a market garden, which I toil
as ever to cultivate
