Diego the flowers

Diego the flowers
that you painted on the backs
of golden skinned girls
farmed in mass inside buckets
now sold by broken old men

just soak in buckets
on sides of freeway exits
food colored twisted blossoms

Diego the flowers

from a time before
the conquest of Silicon
with barcodes on their petals
