Ode On Sidewalk Debris

Tide pod 
Liquid amethyst blood
Leaking from fragrant 
Heart.
Bright olivine bottleglass,
Smashed. Soil-red
Paper, soaked in rain.
Starling feather oil
Blooming on asphalt
And brown sparrows picking
At at brown crumbs
And skittle wrappers.
Riotous refuse! Keep your eyes
Earthward, and find 
Truth. All you know is ground
Into the earth.
