Chicanery’s
Bloom
A
serpentine curve in the road,
added by design.
Tree trunk
from straight to lean,
magnificently
colored roses grow along the curve of the drive.
The turn
of events sometimes turns sharp.
It’s easy to be
thrown aside,
but better to
be solo than in bad company,
so enjoy
how unlonely being alone can be.
The law
of the majority
and the minority
will both chew
through you,
and poke
like the thorns in those roses.
