Chapter VIII  Ornaments (02)

Christmas Cactus

Since you have not seen the sun for a long time
You are unable to bloom
Your dark green is deep and heavy
Almost reaching a profound black of the grand universe

The legs of
Bristly crab
The wings of
Ferocious eagle

The glitter of
Hawk's eyes

The spiraling
Nebula

Silently breathing all alone
At the corner of the room with no windows
Bearing the universe
You do not move at all
