Sisyphus In Love

“Sisyphus in love”


stuck in a forever
flowering field
of oddly
even

petalled daisies 
day in and day out
plucking and chanting

she loves me
she loves me

not

I read this one three times because I appreciated your artfulness. Sorrow for Sisyphus' plight, having bigger problems than plucking daisy petals, dealing with that boulder.

You put more effort into this than I did Lin, but thanks for reading and commenting. No matter what he does will be for all eternity; so that would suck
