Rain lily stop me in my tracks
Voice my desire then walk it back
I wish you could smell these flowers
I wish you could feel the joy
That I feel looking out At
The night lawn punctuated by bursts of
White petal light I'll pick a few
Car cupholder bouquet
Spruce up the travellin room
That crash barely missed me
Crossin all lanes I-35
Saw it all so quickly
Interstate punctuated by bursts of
Metal plastic rubber and glass in flight
Pull over put on flashers see if they're alright
And in some strange sort of way
It was moving, all the care
Displayed in the beet-red face of such precarity
The kind neighbor prevails
And Carries on
Rain lily stop me on my tracks
