titan arum

titan arum

here - where the ground is thirsty,

yesterday comes the sun

but time continues flowing,

anno domini.

not common gaines, nor current gaines,

just pure astronomical

fresh mudcrack drying,

suffering between beauty.

counterbalancing hard tenor,

darkness resonates

in indigo eyes of blue origami.

served by its illusion, can beauty still save?

here - where the ground is thirsty,

rhyming to set the darkness echoing,

rooftops scream of suffering, scream of the grief.

unbalanced, waiting for luminance

walking a golden gate

in an odd place, we are all detoured by transience.

a google map taste of beds of early death dahlias,

an uber ride reveal of beguiling decay

warmed in the blooming,

berkeley’s trudy corpse inflorescence  

laughs at your perfection!

here - where the ground is thirsty,

oh titan arum,

my memories fight drought

planting redwoods.

a hint of his laughter, numinous,

wafts pour homme on bay streets,

sweet familiar fragrance once walked

here- where the ground is thirsty.
