Silkworm
Hidden
among the green,
its mouth hums low—
a thread starts, slow and soft,
dreaming a world it never
witnesses

excited it will fly soon
Ten more days to go
It will fly and go
Joyous and happy it lays

Drops it in boiling water
Takes out its threads
Makes clothing out of it

Who saw the torrid life a prince and the princess

Need Not a Silkworm
Smooth, soft
Need not, a
Silkworm.
Gorgeous streams,
Flow from
Your

I can’t wait to

Eyes that flow
Straight to the center,
Everything I love dwells
From you…
Don’t steal it
And run away.
I need not a silkworm
Today.
