collaborative storytelling that is equal parts critical and creative

her fine petals gather in the shape of constellations,

the hue of sun brushed shells opalescent in the heat

 

she bounces beside the old house

delicately assembled 

and aplenty

 

wondering, I whisper to an insect

shimmy through her coat of lilac clouds

rest in her warmth

 

and tell me how the scent of gorgeous calm

purples your mood
