Lavender Seeds and Human Hair
Every corner has a different curve-rate and a wide purple array. The snout is almost grey, little
folds decorate its body and I pick it up. I forget how my hand could’ve been but a background
for this tiny seed; I’m hypnotized.
Birch leafs were silver until you came up close: then they turned grey.
My fathers’ hair was green.
My fathers’ real name was hard to remember.
The word potverdorie
The French language
A canal
In Bosnian the weeping willow cries (plačuća vrba), while the Dutch is only sad.
There is a neighbourhood with a lot of willows where I always get lost.
The weeping willow was not truly sad and had beautiful hair.
My friend ate her snot, which resulted in a slimy tree growing in her belly.
Blue and green fall into a similar category.
Forgetting is blue but belongs to forest.
