Dan Rosenberg: Truth or Beauty

November 17, 2015 by PBQ

Left to itself your garden
of three pepper plants

stays planted, expands.
The line between warming

and burning flickers.
Your guilty pleasures

(Law & Order, nude hesitation
before the open fridge)

run on without you,
but not without people
like you.
