Dandelion, patch your fur
Dandelion, dance a foreign dance
A new one every day
Every night was a new chimney to slip down
For us, for our folded hands together
Dandelion, ‘round the catnip surrender
We folded our fur together
Never ever again
You’ve curled down to a foreign dream
I’m exhausted for you
Oh, dandelion, of every new field
Of every straight line
I connected dots around your fur
Around a foreign dance
Loved you like a trembling, subtle curl
You closed your eyes and I was blind
Welcome to my sorrow
Never, dandelion
Never shall I touch your lips again, poor flower
