Parent message is 245156
their pretty pagan faces gawped
behind the petals, dewy down
buttoned up, the passage of the
Queen of May, and her blue men whip
winters life-blocked ground, soil bent and bowed
commanded grow, and the fire pixies danced
mischievous, glowed demonic and whooped and hollered
glorious for the arrival of that day.
