Ascending from roots,
Outgrowing the soil,
From dirt cold long winters,
To a desert of heaters…
I look back down beneath,
And wish back on that time.
But moving through rhymes,
Without dwelling past cries.
And so here—want mine?
Come try me one time.
By the thorns of my bloom,
Or grit through my spine.
-Budd
