::: The Lenox Hill Hospital :::

Why do the vines grow in that direction?
There is a garden
Behind that wall
Of silence
Those vines
Are growing on
Barely singing
Like a rusted wind chime
The ancient dream
Of a residual summer
Of hummingbirds, butterflies and MRI’s
Still with no answers.

Hidden only by my view
There is a garden
Behind a wall with vines;
The cherry blossoms struggle for my sight
And I want to see them too
What is it?
What is it?
They seem to ask,
What is it to be specific?
Still, still
I don’t believe
It can be found here
And I do not remember
But I want to
I want to.
