Pink & white cherry blossoms adorn the streets never again
to reach the height of their origin. Memories, too, are created
in "a time between worlds" and "the hard problem of matter."

From a high window, a poet looked down onto to a "secret
world that only the gods knew," where a pond reflects only
itself while corralling leaves and other debris.

A short distance away, lawnmowers are loudly sucking up
the remains of Polyphemus' famously wretched meals.
