 SHORT PLANT  THAT  YEARNS  FOR MY LIVER. 
                                          
 A  PROMISE  AND  A  TEASE,  SPREAD  WELL 
   THROUGHOUT WAKING LIFE, ALONG DITCHES  
 AND  ETHEREAL PLAINS  (MY  EYES HIT  THE 
 TREELINE BEHIND THE  HOUSE. WHATS BEYOND 
      THEM? ABANDONED QUARRY, SLOWLY      
 RECLAIMED. AND THERE AT  THE EDGE  OF MY 
        DAYDREAM, GROWS MUGWORT).         
                                          
       GRAY-GREEN SUIT WITH FRILLS.       
 INVERTED TRIPOD. GRAY COINS IN THE WIND. 
                                          
   THERE ARE WHISPERS ABOUT... MEDICINAL  
 QUALITIES.   I   FORGET   NOW   IF  IT'S 
 COMPARABLE TO DREAMROOT OR  TO CANNABIS, 
 BUT    IT'S    ONE    OF     THE    TWO. 
                                          
 THERE'S  A DEAFENING  SLIENCE  FROM  THE 
   SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY ON ITS TOXICITY   
      (NO RESEARCH, IF YOU BELIEVE)
