| |
| The weddings of flowers take place upon the stigma. Pollen unfastens when aurora begins, and in a moment life redeems itself and then withdraws | |
| |
| |
| With only two or three stamens, masculine flowers burst. They rise from their own depths, glistening and moist. Loosely turning over, they bring themselves up under the sky midway between light and shadow. Voiceless they wilt, sluggish they die | |
