[indent]the sun is small, barely glittering, as he
approaches, timidly, whispers, ‘excuse
me miss, but see-- i heard rumors,
you know, that you
could turn a tree into a girl again.
my laurel wreath used to be--
yes, yes, you heard me correctly,
my lover has been transformed,
the way alchemists make gold
out of iron, the way green
rusts over copper. i don’t know why
this happened to me.’
gold medals are given to victories,
winners crowned in laurel wreaths,
potion bottles wrapped in warnings:
‘leave these nymphs be, lest
they be witches and sorceresses in
training.’ you look at his sad yellow eyes
and you tell the sun, ‘alchemy
turns iron into gold. i do not concern
myself with turning gold
into silver. and besides, i am not
one with the power of metamorphoses:
i am a potion master. perhaps
i can sell you an elixir
as a way to soothe your eternal heartbreak.[/indent]
