| pitch black a flower stands on a rock no sun to warm its petals just darkness chilling its scent not a leaf to comfort its stem a blade of grass has never touched the rock a flower has never shared the rock the shadow of a bird overhead the noise of a grasshopper the presence of an ant is unknown to this flower this flower has never felt the company of a companion been affected with affection laughed over laughter heard sounds of a sound this flower knows no solidarity this flower only knows pitch black standing on a rock next to isolation |
