Interim

Designed for stalling
the butteriest yellow pollen
sticking to your chin,
those hairs so translucent
as dandelion fluff.

What if he was to lie
in the tall grass of the
field and let a bumble bee
nuzzle his face like a stamen?
He may sprout roots or
at least the corners of
his mouth may relax
to a grin.
