Li-Young Lee - My Indigo

Li-Young Lee - My Indigo

It's late. I've come br to find the flower which blossoms br like a saint dying upside down. br The rose won't do, nor the iris. br I've come to find the moody one, the shy one, br downcast, grave, and isolated. br Now, blackness gathers in the grass, br and I am on my hands and knees. br What is its name? br br Little sister, my indigo, br my secret, vaginal and sweet, br you unfurl yourself shamelessly br toward the ground. You burn. You live br a while in two worlds br at once.
