Russian Comfrey, Göteborg, April 18th 2002

  

Symphytum X uplandicum
Uppländsk vallört i augusti, i november,
i januari och i mars

Eva Ekeblad, 2002

The Comfrey
comes back
in its commercially
trampled spot

but if you want to see flowers,
eventually
I will have to import them
from outside
the S-weed domain
- a few hundred meters
across my border
on May 17th



...and the Foxglove lost

Digitalis purpurea

Fingerborgsblomma
i augusti, i december och i februari

Twice presented together with the signs
emptily threatening all parked cars
with removal if remaining
after the coming fifteenth
(always of the next month)
...this trivial riddle
of urban maintenance.

Well, about April fifteenth
a parking meter was installed
some pavements patched
and the Foxglove removed
- for lack of a parking lease
