The juicy pink stalks lie stacked & intertwined.
with calloused fingertips they were
from blood to life blood to life
and life from blood or so foretold,
what could never be, as if that could have
reddened sadness over green happiness
is deadly.
Too confused by the nature of old wood
to harden into bark, shield new growth.
