Based on an encaustic piece by the same name by Andrea Bird
She asks if I can hear the silence.
I try. I try too hard and all I hear is a low
green chant: lovable, loveless, loophole, loose.
So she gives me petals, a handful of pink,
and I gather them in my hands. How lovely
they are as I listen to them fall.
