Kudzu
The uncultivated bloom
rivals the colors and curves
of the gardener's treasures
tended to perfection
behind chemically cleansed glass.
We know the names
and structures by heart
of every domesticated jewel,
but the one draped in vines
never has its worth measured.
-Rob Jackson
Thanks to Roy Knight for the spectacular picture of a Kudzu bloom.
