Poem written in an ‘Alchemy of Writing’ workshop

Tell me, does the night fall because it wants to,

Or because it has to?

It’s the same thing.

It may be risky for the bud to blossom, but what

the heck else is a bud going to do?

You may think you’re able to hold yourself back

from blossoming,

hold yourself in the bud.

But your blossoming is as inevitable as the night falling

And as wanted.

Jillian Harvey, Dec. 2. 06
