Yellowed Cutting

A Powers
I built my house on a cliff
overlooking a sea of clouds
so I can watch the wind tide.
I sit by the windows
and argue with a stronger voice.
Sinless men
would never throw stones.
I plant myself in the windowbox
like a yellowed cutting,\
hoping to forget where I came from,
hoping to bloom far away
from those who are not like me.
