petals ride the sea breeze others eaten by hungry fires
filling empty plots with blood and cement
like cancer the concrete spreads
parking lot grey a purple flower blooms
to the autumn night we give our limbs
shadows stretch and slip back into the forest grim
another shot of soju ready for the cosmos
slender legs part as the oceans swell
her silhouette a dream of moon and waves
