lyrics

Flower Bulbs

There’s a small wooden shed
behind
the house
in indigo blue air
and touched by the tips of tawny twigs
a refuge in the
gloom
pierced
by the flickering
light
a carpet of shards
a reflective
mosaic

It’s nothing
it’s
everything
but
in the great scheme of things
it’s nothing
and
everything

I thought I
would hear
him
humming
only for
one last time

It’s just
the frowning sky
shivering
in an electric
night

See it glowing
through
the thicket of my
room
But I cannot
rest and dwell
in the sun’s exclave
on my
windowsill

It was
on a Friday
when
I saw him
last
watching the birds
frolic
and
sing
There’s a
flower pot
hanging
but
it’s empty

Today I
found his
last receipt:
Wine, Cigarillos, and Flower Bulbs
