The Immortality of Butterflies
Sabine Miller
1. A Queen Is Borne
Subjectless & without
Dominion adrift
in corridors, a
brushfoot for the mead
O, for the endless
brimful weeds
lift in
the wake of
2. The Chrysalis Still Here
Who can de-
cipher my absence
Who shall I say is
whom the sun
powers, having
aptitude
till under all
around is
Single carpet and sky
