Fortunate is the man who can rest in a reflection of his inward self.
Here I hide in contemplation knowing a fierce opulence behind high walls where savage nature strips away all pretense. The dandylions prowl my garden. They challenge all supposition. The snapdragons answer with wrath and barbs of condensentions. Cowbells clang in discordant fear while tiger-lilies rumble and beckon. And birds-of-paradise preen, obsessed with glorious introspection. The fey will not linger here The sparrow flees for its life. The butterflies melt into pattys you can spread with a knife.
