pretending not to be
inside the garden
the wicked garden
tempted as always
taking & giving
as if you’re some sort of
sun god
life is apple pie
dutch apple pie please
a dollop
of vanilla ice cream
a spoon or a fork
it’s your choice
where you may roam
roaming in the wet grass
matters nothing
to anyone
except your own
beautiful self
november two thousand twenty-two
