Talking to Daisies

Have you ever sat on a bench in
a large store and waited for someone?
Have you walked up to a stranger on a bench
and told them to spend more time exercising
their happy muscles?

Try selling a smile for some chamomile seeds
and planting them.
Sing to them. Gently
massage the fur on their stems—
just behind the ears. Then drink
them when they are down and think about how
your body is now feeding off something you once loved.
Do this, and sit on a bench in a store and wait
for someone.
