“You are the flower and I am the grass,”
the young man says to the young woman.
“I am the flower and you are the grass,”
the young woman says to the young man.
“You are a bird and I am a fish.” “I’m
the kite and you’re the wind.” Difficult
as it is, a Chinese couple with eyes
closed kiss forgetting they are opposites
sitting on a stone step not noticing
the grass or the kite in a tree or me
who writes Nor do they know what they begin
might end any moment. As the crazy
man lies down by the Tai Chi dancer
Dad kicks the ball his son runs after.
