MUGWORT            
             =======            
                                          
 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)
