Ikebana

breathing under water
slow, laborious
standing on a bed of thorns
living an exotic life in death.
readily giving up life
to make some enclosure lively
contained in a small vessel
sacrificed to preserve nature
in an unnatural death
the emblem of nature
a defined set of rules
captured in an embrace of art
an entity, before
now a token, merely.
