star-shaped curved and thin as skin with
huge stamen thrusting out, tips caked thick with rust-orange
pollen. Just as we get them into the vase the pollen crumbles
down onto the clean white arc of petal, and sits in clumps
there for days, like food between teeth:
so unbearable but so deliciously definite.
