Thirst
Nikia Leopold
 
 
The marigold has grown 
 So dense1 with leaves 
 and pungent2 blossoms, 
 rain glances from it, 
 missing the glazed3 pot. 
 Even in this downpour, roots 
 know drought, flowers wilt, 
 the way we extend ourselves, 
 obscuring our deepest needs, 
 sleeping without dreams, 
 growing cover that kills.
