Creeping Carolina Trumpet
The vine in the pergola reveals its tentacles only in the bareness of winter. In spring and summer, hidden beneath a benign tapestry, it patiently forces apart joints in the framework attaching itself in an indiscernible, slow-motion drama of destruction. I am torn between the fear of its steady invasion and the lure of its evil promise of coral trumpets.
