her mother had planted
amongst the deep blues,
beds of Forget-Me-Nots,
she followed the
labyrinthine trail
and through a gate unhinged,
it would seem destroyed, thrown aside,

Limp from exposure to unprintable tales of orgies,
And their lights, hidden...

When did I learn to walk?
Kindergarten marches,
