Sometimes it’s ok to steal

To take the flowering plants from your neighbor’s house

The one scheduled to be destroyed…..

Jay says he’s ok

If he stays close to dirt and water.

As we compare notes on the inner landscape

That tricky realm of shadows and light…..

Recommending curiosity

While I just need to say a deeply honest thing

To someone who knows me.

Saying out loud- my insight

So that it might have a chance of

Budding bright within me.
