i have dreamed of daisies,
gold petals that glisten,
a glimmer of hope
among the ashes
among the construction,
reconstruction,
and fabrication-
re-manufacturing
I have dreamed of daisies-
of hope-
of second-hand clothes
and furniture;
jewelry worn by a fancy,
old woman with electric pink
lipstick
that I now
proudly wear.
I have dreamed all of my
things old
and my old things new
I have dreamed I don't need
things
but I do
