Spring

Dragging feet in the water
The nasal passage of time
Conspires and coalesces like music.
Monstrous membranes occlude my perception.

The wave of Spring is always welcome.
But it is not welcome in all ways.
Trees spew their particles into the wind
Awakening ancient cells of resistance.

A body wages war with a body,
Just as beauty battles pain.
Plants emerge from the soil,
And pollen falls like rain.
