Bourgeon de rose sous les gelées alsaciennes
It is a year of transformation, not so much because I desire it, although I am restless by nature, but more so because it is trust upon me. And even though I have mentally prepared for much of it, I find myself reacting more than I would like--it is like dodging bullets of some kind I think.
transformation fills the air
its motion insistent
its sound intrepid
a sense that i could do without
i suppose
i think
as it jerks my arm
waking me.
its heart, a bud really
about to unfold
the unfolding seems inevitable
and like all spent flowers,
petals will litter my floor.
