Lilacs
Lilac bush full
spring's ties to nature's core
Buds that kidnap smell
Sweet layers of scent weaponry
Panoply burst of blooms
modesty displaced
Flower cradles barely hinged by gravity
Purple bunches
that color the center of consciousness
sweeping away grassroots complaining
sweeping off a time drifting to cruelty
freeing the buttoned restraints of love
