We like vintage things
because we can cut them down
and build newer things

Discovery

closeup photo of a rose, stuck to an intersection of brick and concrete walls

Finds uncanny home
a rose nestled between bricks
concrete has wet spots

Marked

a hard-skinned fruit, crinkled in the sun

Leaves its mark on you,
true exposure therapy—
just being outdoors.

Big break

Plants in a dry state,
grateful for a drought relief—
a nation in debt.

Pruning rose bushes
in my rental property—
birds have build homes there.
