Incongruous

I hate geraniums
pointless plants
in garish tones
the all pervading smell
it’s not a scent
the smell of boring biology lessons
bad pencil drawings
of petals and sepals
stamens
cells
and who the hell knows what
Red geraniums
in February
smelling and out of place
out of time
reminding me of you
I hate geraniums
