the valley
the wolf

the blades of grass
cut her ankles to the bone
the twisted vines
wrapping themselves
around her waist
without sound
she prayed to God
asking only for justice
deep driving blues
mixing with waves of green
the wounds soaked the earth
blood meal for beauty rising
the lone flower in the valley
so defiant
so lovely
the flood water crept into the valley
the flower never had a chance
I fell to my knees
placed my head in my hands
and wept
the blades of grass
cut her ankles to the bone
the twisted vines
wrapping themselves
around her waist
without sound
she prayed to God
asking only for justice
deep driving blues
mixing with waves of green
the wounds soaked the earth
blood meal for beauty rising
the lone flower in the valley
so defiant
so lovely
the flood water crept into the valley
the flower never had a chance
I fell to my knees
placed my head in my hands
and wept
Peace, Love.
