Butterfly
You
flung open
wing-like
curtains
found mountains
filling the morning
and all the grubs feeling
obliged to climb
through the unforgiving world
you are
hammered into shape
withstanding
love
the essence must be
swept up with inconstant winds
settling
ghostlike on petals
yet roaming and away
many-faceted eyes
made to share
this once and for all
