Paradise
is Here Now
Every
other year, the plant with the bird's name
flowers
indecent,
majestic -
its
beauty
paralyzing
An
erected yellow
crest
seduces
sunbirds - landing
triggers
the release
of
pollen
onto
the bird's feet
Pollination,
is a matter
of
odds
as
always
in
nature
chance,
prevails above
reason
Synchronization
happens.
Without explanation, I mean
the
whole population
exhibits
its exotic head
at
precisely the same year, month, days
They
say it's a question of
proximity
and I can only relate to
hormonal
stuff
but
the truth is, they
don't
know
just
as spring - what
sets
it in motion
Every
other year
a
paradise
nobody
sees
How?
