This is an erasure poem, where words are erased from the lines.
Flowers
garden, green
sprouting through the
buds unfurl like prayers in . . .
promising to live a better . . .
next time, be more
foraging in
Flowers

Diana, I love how “buds unfurl like prayers” feels both tender and searching to me. Beautiful piece — I’m curious, what was the original text you erased from?
