the burden of beauty
vendor behind the vendor
balances the basket
steady to her center
of gravity as
in acceptance
in prayer
she kneels
steeled
to rise
to the day
fresh calla
in every window
one last
for her kitchen
wilted
folding in
new light
weighing nothing
Cargador de Flores, Diego Rivera, 1935
Ooooh. Like like like.
Lovely.
