hidden in the backyard of eden

i lean rather than sit

eyes regarding the bonsai

and linger as if denying green

on a foliage matter

in a glance taking in blue

and the palms and the rain

skewering leaves with a lengthy down

at times i count the offbeats beating off

in random times upon the puddles

with a watery splintering, softened thudding

plaintive within me, i feel a freefall

feel hidden here, in reality hiddenness

is not a possibility in a conscious world

i cannot hide even here, the rain touches me

and i am found,

i wonder if i should relinquish eden

the possibility of hiddenness, but i deny even this

to myself
