The Gardener
Giant yellow petaled black eyed monsters
hover
the work of one man
the gardener
he plucks each invasive weed
waters with care
picks off insects like a monkey in the bush
covers each head with netting
to dissuade song birds
in winter he sits
chews the fruits of his labor
spitting shells about the floor
