Where laurels grow people live
and have lived in deep
grounded moist places
where hedge is wall
a live divider chosen over
a dead boundary marker
fibrous roots can tunnel
under any trenched foundation
A capillary maze
proportioned to green swell
laurel moves
clipped for the branch
of the family tree rooted
in the space its lines define.
