jericho dreaming
walls of flowering vines
climbing brick and mortar
stitch and sewing along the way
whatever bends or breaks
before and after winter
can surely be repaired or
worst case replaced
bracing for the worst
no longer fits the bill
not as long as circular life forces
unpredictably barrel along
nearby sea and then some
walls have long crumbled
though flowering vines remain
uplifted by an acceptance
to this day unexplained
august two thousand seventeen
