The Flower that Owes Me Rent
A flower sits in my lawn
Waiting for me to mow.
Bees never come to spread its pollen
And it has given up on the life cycle.
Sometimes I hear it at night breathing heavily.
Sometimes it stares at me when I’m driving away.
I could just pluck it,
End its suffering,
Or I could sit with it,
And talk about the soil.
Winter is near,
And either way it’ll be gone.
I’ll miss it,
And it knows that.
I like to think that’s why
It hasn’t ripped off its petals.
Comic.
A group assignment where me and three other people were given a first and last sentence and had to fill in the middle with a story.
A Virginia Dogwood, circa 1999
Drawn by me on a canvas my friend found in a dumpster, then digitally edited
That time I had to be Art Director in undergrad
I draw little guys. He is one of my favorites.
