A rose and a flame, are just the same.

Here they display,
The bland and exciting,
The dim and bright,
The plain and detailed,
The delicate and unbreakable,
The cheap and priceless,
The meaningful and meaningless,
Right next to each other.
It reminds me of something.
As we leave,
I'm asked a question.
“Do you make art?”
Yes.
I paint with words.
