my neighbor
has
a patch of orchids
doesn’t tend it much
pays attention
to it yes
but still
it thrives
bugs stay away
gets just enough water
likes where it’s at
gave me a stock
been sitting on my desk
long about three weeks now
feel like I should plant the sucker
feel like I should
pay
homage
amazing thing
white purple streaks
accent yellow tongue
sentry over my thoughts
seven blossoms standing guard
beauty, longevity,
bringing to this humble place
more
class
than it deserves
more class than I deserve
more class
than
the
world
deserves
