Weeping Willows

WEEPING WILLOWS

love
is        like
garden          ash
a bee that                stings,
bruised-blue’s door fraught   with
August’s pale lip                           nettles.

weeping willows await                     fate
stirring against the wall’s faint               swoons
of twilight, the moon wrapped in eclipse            of
the heart, outcome a hard                                     mystery.
