#2123 - wilt

wilt

in the great heat

 

once upright

thus beckoned

to parrot bright

 

in full leaf

so much insect

tricked from the air

 

everyone out to flower

as if there were no choice now

 

limp with

 

old summer dread

 

entropic

wallaby lain to shade

 

edged by breeze

in the bindi eye time

 

day bites and night bites too

 

little insects that won’t

I go round killing them

but they’re too many

 

I need the vac

 

wait for the koel to come

 

they say today is Thursday

where’s evidence of that?
