PALLIATIVES

Scented language alive
flexing the frontal way
toward a stranded plant
of geraniums living carefree
in taking leaves of Fall
by an uneasy rock garden
a cupboard constructs
moments to chronicle days
in the water proof studio
from pop art shattering boxes
of Cornell -like mediums
by picked up pills
from friendless company
of showering acceptance
in metaphoric rain.
