quite simply
there are some roses 
on and around provincetown 
that have changed my life.
perhaps something about 
rambunctious communal beauty
paired with a wild insistence
to bloom wherever necessary 
makes me believe
that within this very moment of inhale,
every natural thing belongs, 
resplendent 
and every one of us,
is to be treasured.
