cut a stem for me
from the plant in the garden.
the plant with white flowers
on the edge of a water fountain.
the fountain of a cherubim
who’s arrow head is iced over.
dream garden
lost as an approximation
of a thousand other
summer gardens in the winter.
do this and I’ll stop demanding
you assist me find my bedrock.
cut a stem for me
from the plant in any garden.
