Saturday commute clxvii: Approaching Palm Sunday





Our shameless Californian bias,
which is much less intended to
be prejudicial than evangelical,
rears itself again in the vege-
tation's tonsorial inspiration.
Still, they also serve as palms,
to stand erect and shaggy in the
sun, often planted symmetrically
in parallel, to trail a stately
progress of some length. A chan-
nel, not of monotony but certain-
ly of concentration, is bounded
firmly but shaded sparingly by
their height. We are to imagine
but of openness at the same time.
