I was interested.
until the pages of the calendar fell
quietly to the floor
I was interested.
in carving a space in the world
to be there when I'm not.
I was interested.
in the burdens you talk about
trying to get my mind around them.
I was interested.
to give my sage advice and opinion
but they fell silently to the floor.
Now I don't
take time out of my unbusy day.
except to plant my flowers wildly
Life is a one soul thing.
I do not need to solve anything.
if it does not affect me
Wildflowers
those matter to me and no one else.
