Call me Rudbeckia
(Becky for short)
A black-eyed susan at night
Petals luminous
Center inscrutable in the darkness
Part of a mass effect
Individually unique
Embraced in a golden sea
Spider-threads
Carry vibrations of those distant
Fractel-like,
Petals branch out
A lattice wrought for souls.
Velvet Thorn
