By any other name ...

Everywhere I walked
the scent of vagueness had been there
in the need to describe
what it was in an overbearing fruit,
what it had been with the weather;
why I always had to repeat myself.
.
.
Even while I slept,
petals kept falling from the ceiling
and I tried shielding myself from this,
the indelible scent of vagueness,
rubbing off on the blankets.
The weather had not been forgiving
so I always had to repeat myself
for the sake of elucidation.
