Philadelphia





The wind carries cherry blossoms like pink snow 


Stepped on they became confetti lining the streets on my way home


It continues blowing, rustling through the trees while cars honk their horns to a backdrop of reggaeton


Lantern flies clasp the growing basil, unyielding


Ignorant they’re to be victims plucked up and crushed between fingers


Delivered into a spiral of dust spun against the concrete 


Snatched up forgettably in the current of air
