Plantago arenaria
Sandkämpar i juli

Eva Ekeblad, 2002

Yesterday they did the reinforced corners
where apprehension tells the planner
that people will take shortcuts.

Today they did the fullscale
roll-on regulation
of vegetative dissent - in that section of the lawn.
Someone
puts a lot of money in circulation
in the service of order.

Meanwhile

in the next section
the Discovery Dill
is already stepped on
and the Branched Plantain
which surprised me by growing roots
in its glass of water
has to wait
a little longer
for its return outdoors.
