Replying to a comment on:
collars i have worn--exhibit 3 (Free verse) by Patsy
you are the garden in which
i could never sit.
And just loving the way it smelled and felt
was never appropriate--
i had to stay, i had to
guard the gates and
talk to your plants and
visit you occasionally in your
pristine pond,
climb into that cold water
and let you hold me like a buoy.
And sure, yeah,
part of me is shivering, cold and old
and i would tell you all about it
except that you always lacked fire
and i need to dry off.
