IN HANDLING A FLOWER
MELINDA LASZCZYNSK
In handling a flower,
the tail of the snake manifested itself.*
In handling a paper,
the sediment of the past surfaced again.
Pressed into a stone
movement and freedom-
the emergence of our bones**
Material as resistance,
Color is defiance,
a flower is a portal.
*Gateless Gate
**Vibrant Matter
