WD 222 “A Diagram”


A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth.

A Diagram

I close like

The petals of a flower

Come in to meet me and hide in my dark

All the stages of grief can be felt and once

As we slide down the stem

In lightless peace and horror 

What I am is

No concern for the mind

But a question for the spring rain

As it opens the flower’s eyes.
