to be
sorry for
bleach
blond
sucking the color
out if
you don't have anything
nice to say
i went up
asked if
it was okay
a son
a young child
another
overgrown
dirty
still
in work clothes
he said he'd
get a highchair
and
it was alright
black and sleek
long curtain sheers over
long windows
half of my throat
is sore
i am straight up
and looking around
don't whine
don't be a baby
not here
not now.

Vervain is a favourite plant of mine. I garden with wild/native plants, exclusively. Unfortunately our climate doesn't really suit Vervain
