Zuzu's Petals

Once a romantic

he loved

the drama of youth.

The glass air and

scent of sweet pea.

He read visionary books

but became

blinded by truth.

And fiction

forever merged him.

Kissing death

he became lost

to himself.

A nomad with

the devil's map.

The never

ending search

to find Zuzu's petals.

The Crack pipe

to boil his kettle.

Was all that

was left

behind
