meaning

the white orchid flower
just fell to the ground
it sounded like tissue paper
crinkling as it fell
it was so definitive
like a lover waking up in the middle of the night
finally deciding to leave
i saw that it went yellow earlier today
and sagged like silk
i searched and searched for the way to
save it
make its stem go back to green

the snow has stopped
its large chunks
dove down in diagonals
all day
snow is the only thing
that gets quieter when it hits the ground

I spent 3.23 on a juice today
