Poor flowers in the flower beds of manicured gardens

Poor flowers in the flower beds of manicured gardens.
They look like they’re afraid of the police…
But they’re so true that they bloom in the same way
And have the same ancient coloring
They had in their wild state for the first gaze of the first man,
Who was startled by the sight of them and touched them lightly
So that he would see them with his fingers too.
