I. FIRST
Lately I cry when I recall my blood
what is this pain?
be it biome biology
be it blood iconography
looking out the window of tolerance
across the field of compassion

through seasonal pulses of growth
In each crack
an orchid growing
These berries with their choices
Come to earth

looking out the window of tolerance
across the field of compassion
what is this pain?
