Rogues
he
left
her there
as she asked
by the willow tree
having told her the roots were rogue
that they grew wild all over and killed everything
but she told him that she didn't much care about the cedars or the pines anyway
she just wanted to sit in the shade with a lover
who didn't waste his time on plants
but simply wanted
to sip gin
alone
with
her
