The red bits dangling from filaments are anthers, which are the pollen-bearing parts of flowers. Grasses are wind-pollinated and don’t need to attract animal pollinators with showy petals, so grass flowers are a lot less conspicuous than how we normally picture flowers to look. The other features of a flower are still present, with the exposed anthers being perhaps the most visible.

Los rostros de este sitio no regresan jamás al ejercicio cotidiano. (Aquí mi mano vive entre tu mano. Aquí los corazones no nos pesan). Eres. Soy. Cuánta soledad en torno. Aún vivo y vives. Sorprendente llama. Viajamos bajo el sol. Sobre la grama. (Aquí en el calendario no hay retorno).
