Birdsfoot Trefoil, Göteborg, October 17th, 2001

This morning I had a dentist's appointment
to repair a filling, partially fallen out
and while leaned back under the eye of that lamp
I suddenly knew (with a giggle)
that today I had to pay the Trefoil a revisit

If you don't speak Swedish, you may wonder why.

Translating the name into Crone's Tooth
may exaggerate the age of the yellow-toothed woman.
But it's catchy.





Lotus corniculatus
Käringtand i september, i november,
i januari och i maj
