time slips, I read entranced
while thinking behind it,
rose slips
those that were planted
in a new precarious land
by a weathered hand
but time slips in and
I am lost again
on a sea of allusions
time is profusion
and the roses too
dotting the plains
the prairie roses
sometihng corrects
it's still the same I say
they all need rain
