Thirst

Nikia Leopold

The marigold has grown

So dense¹ with leaves

and pungent² blossoms,

rain glances from it,

missing the glazed³ pot.

Even in this downpour, roots

know drought, flowers wilt,

the way we extend ourselves,

obscuring our deepest needs,

sleeping without dreams,

growing cover that kills.
