- Flowers of a July Afternoon

Union Square, 2010

1.

Flowers passing by around me

hawks that try

to built their root inside the chain

of the memory’s guilt

2.

Flowers that met

The cheeks of a Girl from Saigon

3.

Flowers that felt

The hips of a Girl from South Korea

4.

Flowers that he could melt

In one breath of a Woman from Cappadocia

5.

Flowers passing by around me

Doves that try

To built their nest inside the box

Of the memory’s innocence

6.

But they never arrived

And they shall never will

For the Sender needs a

Silent Man of their love

forever thus to be
