lyrics

Pollen
by Sandra Marchetti

Droplets. Clumping molecules.
Leaves' breaths
on the backs of cars
that only through water were—
and then were only ever
particular ghosts—
a neon peridot.

The pollen falls around,
pushes back
through nostrils,
sifts in lashes,
lands in beds
under eyelids.

We pull our eyelids
at their sheeted corners,
as if to press the eye all the more
toward the bloom,
the dusty after-center of nature's
first derivation.
