Secret Ingredients

Backwater

ancient banyan roots
a lounging snapping turtle
basks in the sunlight

bayou roots-
the sun warms
a lazy turtle

Decency

there is no debate
we should be doing what’s right
not just what’s easy

morality is
happily doing
the hard work

Patience

my heart held hostage
as a testament to your
faith in my return

waiting-
my heart
as collateral
