Cotopaxi, Ecuador (summer 2012)

i saw myself without a heart

sinking on a sofa
or in a ship at sea
lifting my head above the crowd
to see what i might see
and what a sight i saw
unsure of what it was
i kicked and prodded up and down
and wondered what it does:
a frozen stand of trees
unchanged by each hour
i saw myself without a heart
looking for a flower.
