The Web Poetry Corner - Frank Valentyn - Rare Trim

Rare Trim

by

Frank Valentyn

Those quite dead spiky bits
from which all thriving life
has withdrawn and evaporated
are quite unyielding
anthropomorphically obstreperous
when I snip them from between
the green luxuriant pliancy
of remaining foliage
on my room-corner yucca

It came to me
that I suffered from yuccatitis
and it from humancy
and that opaquely unbeknown
to both our strange workings
there was unquantifiable mutual assistance
in the translucent need
to remove dead irritants
making room for new growth
and carefully brave snipping
