My free will is no myth,
like the determinists say:
it is a flower opening in
the jagged course of this
evolutionary day—as mind
emerges with brain and
the passion to create full
and be remembered beyond
the browning individual
rose of death that sweeps
each of us away; yet minds
and passions keep coming—
growing ever with the wind
and the rain as new flowers
grow—individual but in rows.
