hidden away
in an industrial park
i sit
enjoying the sun
shining across
an overgrown area
around a dried up creek
scraggly little trees
coniferous dancing pins
and a row of haphazard
spread sunflowers with
deep brown eyes
in a finery of
bright yellow petals
fifteen minutes to go
until the damnation
in concrete hell
in my rear view
losing myself in
the verdancy aplenty
blowing kisses to
my love with the same
bottomless brown gaze
as the sunflowers
lull me gently to dream
hidden away
in a decrepit little
industrial park
in the middle of
a simmering nowhere
of steel and glass
