Seeds


Rocky

A dark spot, a bruise, a wrinkle
A drop of red ink on green
Lambsquarters, chickweed, bull thistles
A stem of dandelion

A passing cloud, a grimace
Dull eyes, a nervous laugh
A question, a word, or phrase
Unintended like a gaffe

Inconsistencies and silences
Long stretches of nothing
Bricks on walls and fences
A door you don't see closing
